The good news is that prospects have turned positive for Republicans to win Senate seats currently held by Democrats in Florida, New Jersey and Wisconsin.
Probability assessments from various sources give Republicans a 25 percent to 50 percent chance of keeping control of the House.
So despite pockets of good news, on balance there's a lot of pessimism about Republican prospects in the midterms.
Democrats are pouring in funds, feverishly targeting key Republican districts.
Which brings me to a remarkable young man, John James, who, with the endorsement of President Trump, won the Republican primary for the Senate in Michigan.
A Republican governor and a focus on prudent fiscal management have turned things around.
James, with his conservative appeal and sterling credentials, is an exciting new face of the Republican Party and could be one of the great surprises and upsets of 2018.
