I walked out to pick up the mail yesterday and my Republican across-the-street neighbor ambled over to smirk at me.  “What happened to that blue wave y’all were expecting?”

Okay, now picture this – a slightly chubby old white man on social security and socialized medicine, thinks Trump won the mid terms.

I looked at him with that “Have you had a stroke?” look that – not to brag – but, I’ve kinda perfected with this guy.  In a county that had not even one county wide elected Democrat now has them all. We won every race where we ran a Democrat. It wasn’t a wave, it was the earth shifting poles.

And now there’s this:  “The Cook Political Report shows that the Democratic lead in the U.S. House popular vote for the 2018 midterms is now up to 8.5%.”

“For comparison purposes, note that in 2010 – which was widely seen as a GOP ‘wave’ cycle – Republicans won the U.S. House popular vote by 6.6%. In 1994, which was seen as a Republican ‘revolution,’ the GOP won the U.S. House popular vote by 7.1%.”

I’m putting that on a poster board in my front yard right across from his mailbox, dammit.
