Downfall of Jeb lead to Trump, and nominating another Romney conservative isnt the answer either. The blockade of reform of immigration has hurt the GOP party.

The problem for the GOP, they already maxed out their cuts when the recession took hold after 2014, when they won  GOV mansions. Time to grow economy, economy isnt shrinking any longer. They want to repeal Obamacate, thats no longer a priority, because younger workers are now signing up.

Garland is the 3rd Jew to be brought before Senate in election yr: Brandeis 1916, Ben Cardoza Hoover, 1932, and now Garland.Hoover did it in a split Senate.

I think McConnell's obstruction is not only gonna lose him 5 seats, but a 52 or 53 seat senate will insulate Dems: Tester, Donnelly & McCaskill in running in close races and allow Dems to keep party control in 2018.

Their candidates that could of beaten Clinton, Jeb, Rubio & Kasich just got beat. The one reason is the Tea Party, and Sarah Palin who endorsed Trump.  And the Tea Party is no question playing spoiler to GOP on behalf of Garland, that Kirk, Heller, Moran & Johnson bucked the GOP on.

If 2020, if they go ahead and nominate Ryan, they will lose again, who wants to privatize social security and medicare. The GOP havent taken any steps on the Bowles-Simpson plan.

Trump is now down by 6 points, the same place where Romney & McCain was.  A 272 election was suppose to bring in NH, CO and Iowa; as GOP solidified Va, thats why the convention in Cleveland.  Cook just moved Portman out of leans R category. If Appalachian continues to vote like Potomac, rather than South, then that too will spell doom for GOP

The payroll tax cut was the cut in social security tax, a 401K plan for younger workers is a start, but Bush W was heavily involved in Enron, when he proposed it.

The GOP are not only favored to lose right  now, safe states like FL. AZ are becoming more vulnerable now, due to Trumps dive in Latino support.

The decline does put the House in play now, because Congressmen in FL, TX and AZ on the GOP side are in heavily populated Latino states and communities. That 2020, reapportionment was suppose to wait to redistrict out, but cant wait because of Trump.

Even, in 2020, the Senate map; CO, AK, Iowa, MI, NH & Va looks oddly bad for GOP, even if Ryan runs. And Dems hope to net a big fish AK in getting Begich to return to def Sullivan. If Trump lose this election,  it will be disastrous and until 2024 for GOP to get back WH.

Which Dems intend on doing
