Prediction for November
The (R) Elite scum will lose the house and senate to the (D) Marxists and Trump will be POTUS. The voters are SICK TO DEATH of congress, Obama and the morass of corruption in DC. Heads are going to roll, WE LIVE IN INTERESTING TIMES.
Incumbents are going to get slaughtered; I hope my congresscritter, Bill Johnson (R) OH 6th loses his job. The guy is a freaking traitor. I would vote for Saul Alinsky for his seat to get rid of him as sweet revenge.

The ONLY upside of this election season for me is the retirement of Diane Feinstein.
Also boxer and pelosi. brown too (if memory is correct). The ones that worry me are the newbies like newsome.

Gavin Newsome is a cancer to the people of California. Glad I left before he became Lt. Governor. Lord help you if he becomes Governor of California....or goes to Congress then we're all screwed.
Incumbents are going to get slaughtered;
I get 4 negative mail pieces everyday from both my incumbent State Senator and our Congressman. Loudermilk swore up and down he would not vote for Boehner as speaker.... First thing he did was vote for Boehner. He's Fired.
Brandon Beach is another one. Our district is 90% (RED) in a rural county 10% North Fulton (ie Very Rich liberal dirtbags BLUE) All his money and attention go to his liberal "friends" in Fulton. He sends at least one or 2 Negative mail pieces a day bashing his competition. Last cycle he beat one of our LGS owners in a close race after the LGS owner had resigned his State House Seat to run for State Senate... Beach has done nothing for our County and only whored up with his construction buddies to push MARTA into both Cobb and Cherokee. We voted three times on this. We DO NOT WANT MARTA up here.... I'm going to look into how he voted on this latest BS consruction debacle that has had 575 and 75 stopped for 2 yrs.
Brandon Beach... You're FIRED...

I worked hard doing my little part in 2010 to help swing the house seat for my district to the GOP. We did it. What we got was a turncoat of a nice little big government GOP lap dog. He is still there and now running for the senate. I haven't voted for him since 2010.
Like Rubio said in his concession speech. The GOP has only itself to blame. We gave them to the house in 2010 and they did nothing. We gave them the senate in 2014 and they did nothing. At least he spoke about it. I thought more of him for that than anything he did in his campaign.

Rubio?....did he ever show up to vote?[:o)]
This helps all who want to break up the 2 party monopoly system and keeping Hillary out is the first step to preventing the final destruction of the republic

The best thing about Trump is he is no GOP insider and they are freaking out he is taking their nominee position.

That's the way I see it. Trump is just a step. Not my idea of a great candidate, but a needed step if we are ever going to get to one.
Trump don't drink.
If you don't vote for your GOP candidate for congress then you are voting for Nancy Pelosi for speaker of the house.
With the GOP nominating process all but over. Conservatives are told to suck it up and vote Trump, else you are casting a vote for Clinton or Sanders. You really can't have it both ways.
Actually I find turning the House and/or the Senate over to the Democrats more frightening than A Democrat President. Remember ACA, originated and was 100% support by Democrats in Congress
OK, HOLD IT!
If you don't vote for your GOP candidate for congress then you are voting for Nancy Pelosi for speaker of the house.
Really???? You got to be kidding me, seriously have you thought about what you said? How is Pelosi any different than Boehner or Ryan? Obama got MORE than he asked for the (R) leadership in the house just let him have ALL OF IT with nary a word. Just how could Nancy Pelosi be worse? The (R)'s have not made any effort to stop Obama's Marxist agenda, hell they just go along with him smiling for the camera.
I ain't voting for Bill Johnson; he is a traitor and needs to go.
There are definitely problems in the GOP leadership, and I think they have done some really stupid things. But wasn't the time to fix the problems in the PRIMARIES.
Now, you quoted the setup: If you don't vote for your GOP candidate for congress then you are voting for Nancy Pelosi for speaker of the house.
but left out the main point:
With the GOP nominating process all but over. Conservatives are told to suck it up and vote Trump, else you are casting a vote for Clinton or Sanders. You really can't have it both ways.
Now, I reject the very concept that not voting for someone is a vote for someone else. This was directed to those calling for unity behind trump that are perfectly willing to forgo the same concept for Congress. By attacking the "establishment" GOP does that not imply a willingness to turn congress over to the Super Establishment, the Democrats.
I think Clinton bounces back once Bernie is silenced, but Trump is in striking distance.
Fox News poll released last night has Trump ahead by 3 points.

I don't think you can pay much attention to the "general " polls.
CBS has Clinton +6 and Rasmussen has Trump +5.
You have to look at individual states since it is necessary to win the State for its electoral votes.
5/19 NJ Clinton +7
5/18 NH Clinton +2
5/17 AZ Trump +4
5/10 FL Clinton +1
5/10 OH Trump +4
etc, most of these are within the margin of error.
It's very simple. If you don't hold your nose and vote for someone you don't want elected, then someone you don't vote for that you don't want elected will be elected. So be sure to vote for someone you don't want elected so you keep someone you don't want elected from being elected.
This argument is only valid on a State by State case. We are talking Presidential election where the goal is to get 1 more vote than your opponents to get all the electoral votes for that State. Trump should carry Texas handily by at least 15% (that is 65/35) 1 or 100 more votes in Texas won't help in CA or NY. Getting the most votes nationwide means nothing, ask Gore.

I can't believe there are people using this argument on any level. It's absurd from the outset.

A "general" poll is just that.....something quick to look at to see a general trend.
The whole point is that the conventional wisdom has been that Trump is going to get crushed in both the electoral and popular vote...and in very early polling, he's got a legitimate shot.
It's a difficult electoral road to navigate, but if he brings certain states into play......who knows what can happen.
IF Trump wins I think incumbents will do well. When we talk of incumbents getting slaughtered we are actually talking about ALL current Republicans in Congress. I don't see any indication the Democrats are sick of Democrats in Congress.
As for Bill Johnson (R) OH 6th I did a little looking. He has a Freedomworks score of 57% lifetime. That does suck, but it is still better than ANY Democrat in the House. I can't see replacing him with a Democrat as an upgrade. He won 2 years ago by 20% and was unopposed in this year's primary.
If it is important that Trump beats Hillary it is equally important that the Republicans retain control of the Senate (confirmations) AND the House (ending the ACA, building the "Wall"). Democrats controlling either will stop Trump dead in his tracks.

Keep up the fight. We fought MARTA in Clayton County for almost 30 years. When MARTA finally won it took less than 10 years for Clayton County to be turned into a crime-ridden ghetto. It still amazes me how quickly quiet, clean, suburban neighborhoods were destroyed by blacks and the slime balls they vote into office.
Hillary vs. Trump= Trump big win
Sanders vs Trump= Trump in a squeaker
Biden/Sanders vs Trump= toss up.(slight edge to Democrats[:(]
