I wouldn't call it a red wave. but I don't care.

Just win the House and Senate and I'll be happy either way.

PIcking up 30+ seats in the House in one election is unprecedented. I have never seen a swing that large. Couple that with gaining 13 seats in 2020 and it is a huge gain in that house.

I think he actually got more money than Abbott to campaign with.

And he still got his butt handed to him.
Candidate quality matters and Abbott ran a very good campaign, focused on the handful of key issues (crime, economy, the border) that resonate with Texans. Beto basically ran on abortion and taking away guns.
 
Almost 24 hours after the polls closed there are still 50 uncalled races just in Congress. That's fucking ridiculous.
 
The system in Alaska is a total disaster thanks to Murkowski's crooked machine. Absolute disgrace for the good people of Alaska.

What the actual hell? One, is he talking about himself? If so, maybe he just is having a hard time admitting he is in fact an extremist?

In context Bozo was talking about other people calling him an extremist.
Just heard that clip on the radio.

Yeah, I deduced that, but it does almost sound like he can't get the words out of his... oh wait, nothing new.
 
It’s going to take a week, but things should shake out the way you want them if you’re hoping for Fauci hearings and Hunter Biden investigations.

Masters and Lake look good and Laxalt looks like he’s going to win by a few points.

Throwing the cultural preference bullshit (namely a national abortion ban) to the side would be a good idea also. Leaving it with states, whatever, but nobody really wants a national ban except these John Birch, Federalist Society ivory tower types.

I agree, for the same reason Roe v. Wade was inappropriate a national ban is inappropriate. Let the fucking states decide. The Federal Government shouldn't have hands in things they have no business having their hands in.
 
I don't think a national ban was ever realistic anyway. That was more scaremongering.

As much as I abhor abortion, I have to agree here, and I have said it before.
