A demcorat campaigning on economic issues wins handily in an area of people who are mostly concerned with economic issues? That's impossible.

People are so over-zealous if they think that one flip in Kentucky means anything. It doesn't this special election will not show any reals signs of a massive blue wave come November. The best you people can hope for is the Dems taking the House but a blue wave of such a magnitude that some of you are predicting is unrealistic.

I don't think there's going to be a huge blue wave, but this does indicate that the Democrats have a very good chance of taking back the House.

Mexico is paying for Da Wahl too.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

I will wait for the stories of teachers pulling their guns to keep class order. There is a burn out issue. My kid is in high school and she says she has two teachers who often call the class assholes......

And what if the military gets split up between the two factions? Military personnel aren't exactly brainwashed to follow the Federal government's orders.

Because why would they?

America is prosperous, why would they take down the government?
