I think CNN just called the race for Lamb.



When will Lamb take office?

I don't know, but Paul Ryan will probably delay it... kind of defeats his "He's a conservative!" narrative.

They'll have to wait for the remaining military ballots to arrive and be counted (I think the deadline is Tuesday), any recounts to happen, and the results to be certified.  So I suspect it's at least 2 or 3 weeks at a minimum.

The race that I am now excited for is OH-12. Will we see the Democratic suburban surge in Columbus like we did in Pittsburg last night?

Laura Ingraham is absolutely convinced that Lamb is a Republican at heart. Clearly, she knows none of his views.

And yet now they turn around and pretend Lamp is a right wing Republican (now that he won). The republican party is overrun with hypocrisy.

Y'all would've seen the picture months ago if you started following the race from the jump. Smiley

At this point, I'd say the House is all but a done deal for the Democrats. The fact that Republicans lost this race despite nonstop ads screaming "NANCY PELOSI!!!!!!" means that she is no longer an anchor around Democratic candidates' necks that she used to be.

$10 million and the VP/President came in, and they still lost.

Admittedly Lamb made a great move in opposing Pelosi.

All I want is for AP to call the race. It's my Christmas wish.

What's taking so long to call the race?  All 100% of precincts have reported in.

"Basically a tie" in what would normally be a safe R seat is ok to them?

The interesting thing is, lying to themselves doesn't put an end to the electoral bloodbath waiting later this year. At best, it's just their public face and they understand the implications privately. At worst, they are actively deluding themselves, thus potentially hindering their ability to do things that could help blunt the impact of a backlash in November.

Personally, I don't think there is much they can do at this point, but if there was anything, stuffing Trump away in the west wing, taking his phone away and basically making him a ghost would probably help somewhat. Most of the GOP's problems right now are of Trump's own making. The man is a walking scandal. If it isn't something from his past, it's something new coming from his mouth and/or twitter account.

I'm just trying to imagine this spin the morning after Election Night. "Democrats embraced my policies, so I didn't lose the midterms." lololol

If D's win something like 50 seats, I really don't think they'll care much how Trump and other R's spin it.
