Re: Can Beto O’Rourke really beat Ted Cruz?

I heard an interesting analysis as I was flipping across channels tonight.

On CBS (of all places), they were talking about the probable narrow lead for Ds in the House, and the probable gains in the Senate for the Rs. They drew the parallel with Clinton in his election rebid - how it really helped him to have Gingrich and the R House as a foil to run against.

If this parallel remains the same, then it COULD do Trump a favor to have a strong Senate (for SCOTUS confirmations), and a weak D majority in the House come 2020. With the weak majority, they can't do much (although they gain some subpoena power), but he could use their own majority against them for his own reelection campaign.

Or so says the guy on the news...

Re: Can Beto O’Rourke really beat Ted Cruz?

Lots more Cruz signs going up now here in my neck of the woods (Westchase district, Houston).
Including the one in my yard that went up this week.
