    Everyone on cnn is saying no blue wave. 
    I don't think I ever knew what the blue wave was suppose to be... I think if figured it was just that they won back either Congress or the Senate. Was itnsupppsed to be that they won both? Or was one or the other supposed to be a landslide?
    From what tcnn commentators were saying is picking up house and senate.  Looks like dems are gonna lost a seat or two in the senate. 
    There was never a realistic chance of that.  Too many democratic seats in Republican states.

    Yeah, I don't see how anyone would have thought that idea possible.

    Yeah, I don't see how anyone would have thought that idea possible.
    Btw, I think the fact that that didn't even seem possible is appalling, all things considered.

    Remember these are six year terms so this was just bad luck.  Democrats had to defend far more seats.  2020 may be a reversal although I'm not sure.

    No blue wave tonight. 
    Blue wave equals winning the House.  That's all that matters. 
    Thats kind of what I always thought.
    Governorships are important - they draw the maps.

    I lived in Tampa for ten years and have to go to Naples for work 15 to 20 times a year... I loved Tampa but hate the state when I'm not in the cities.  I love Virginia and don't despise the rural areas here like i did in Florida.  It just sucked.

    Democrats take the House, at least we now have a check on 45. Adam Schiff must be busy planning hearings tonight.
