Now before you go bitching about polls, The Cook Report is not a pollster. They weigh many factors - poll trends and averages just one of many.

Can't wait to see the gnashing of teeth if Beto wins :19:

In recent weeks, several public polls have shown O’Rourke inching ever closer to Cruz. As of Friday, there is yet another indication that O’Rourke could have a fighting chance come November: the Cook Political Report updated its rating for the race, moving it from leans Republican to toss-up.​

Here is why Ds have a solid shot at the Senate


So what? So what if you're right? Let's say the D's regain the entire Congress, they've had it before and where did it ever get us? The SNL meltdown? Massive recession? Takeover of banks? Socialization of healthcare bankrupting the nation? Over the past 1.5 years, this country has gained on every front: economically, financially, immigration, trade, foreign relations-- -- -- people are working, making more money, stock market up, more disposable income, illegal aliens down, crime down, trade balances leveling out, Korean nuclear threat, ISIS and other matters better resolved-- -- -- and that is with all the crap Trump has been forced to deal with. Why should I care much less be happy knowing that if the D's get back in total control, they're just going to start the same shit all over again that put us in this mess in the first place that lead to THREE major election losses in 2010, 2014 and 2016?

Put another way, when are you going to start putting country ahead of your own personal politics?

You a funny guy but always wrong Tooby. Trump has done nothing but turn this country into an international embarrassment and add mountains of debt. The economic success is a straight-up continuation of Obama's last 7 years.

So what? Because the Orange Clown needs a CHECK on his most horrific impulses.

The only "embarrassment" has been the mutual frustration shared between the complicit Left and European international community in that the keys to the car have been totally taken out of your hands! For the first time you have a Republican you can't threaten, bribe, rattle or scare. NO ONE talked about economic recovery during Obama---- quite the OPPOSITE. Indeed, it was the slowest, longest "recovery" in history. Yet now that Trump is investing in America, you call it backward progress. In your mind, Obama's recession was economic progress and now that Trump is building America you call it falling back? :auiqs.jpg: Ever build a business? It takes a certain investment to get things going before you start seeing a profit------ that is where we are at. The only thing orange here are your fantasies, and the only horrific impulses here are your realization that everything you hoped for flew out the door 11/07/16.

Mountains of debt? Lol. Your savior, O, added 9 trillion, and we didn't hear nary a peep from you. Deal with it.

Thought he had added 11 trillion
 
O'Rourke is not going to win.

If Cook rates it a tossup, then it's a tossup!
Accuracy
So flip a coin, then wait for all those newly registered young voters, white suburban women and brown people who Trump's been insulting for 2.5 years to show up. Could get fun!

Yup, Cook is the go to.

Are we back to Hillary? Actually the polls (which largely focus on national popular vote) pretty much got that one right.

One last look: 2016 polls actually got a lot right
National Polling Accurately Nails Popular Vote

So Dotard squeaked the EC by 77,000 votes in three states? Not exactly the "landslide" he endlessly brags about to this day.

If you add in the govt fiscal year into september 2017, which was O's budget, its closer to your number.

Hold on a minute...I thought polls show that Trump has gained Brown voter support?
Yes, President Trump’s policies are good for Latinos too

Yes 13% in Florida and worse elsewhere
