MY GUESSTIMATE, FOR WHAT THAT MAY BE WORTH TO YOU

By Bob Walsh

What will probably really be the most significant mid-term election in living memory will happen in two weeks. 

Currently the Democrat-Socialist party enjoys a majority in the House of Representatives of 220-212 with three vacant seats.  I think-believe-hope that, when the dust settles, there will be a 13-seat Republican majority.  I think there is no question whatsoever that the Democrat-Socialists will lose their majority, the only real question is by how much.  
 
Currently the senate is split 50-50.  I believe that, when it is all over, the Republicans will have a one seat majority, but a two or three seat majority is not out of the question.  (I admit this figure is squishy and could have a lot of wishful thinking involved.)
 
It also seems likely that the Republicans will pick up a few governors that would have been unthinkable two years ago.  
 
Decisions are made by those who show up.  Vote early and often.

Hope you're right Bob. After the past couple of years...I would have thought the changes would be much more dramatic.
