Why Republican and right-leaning independent voters simply must come to the polls and beat back the Democrats’ quest for Congressional power on Tuesday.

There is a slight Democrat advantage in generic-ballot polling, which is of negligible predictive value when there is an actual ballot with actual candidates, and there is a historical advantage given to the party opposing the president.

After conceding the possibility that the Democrats do have an opportunity at flipping the 23 seats they need for a House majority takeover, Trende noted that "But we also have a LOT of House seats that are polling within a point or two. If we get even a *slight* break among undecideds toward Republicans they end up keeping a lot of those seats."

Trende's analysis combines with an interesting poll Rasmussen Reports released late last week indicating that the real advantage the Democrats have is in the volume and intensity of the obnoxious screeching their voters are engaging in during the runup to the midterm.

Just as in 2016, Democrats are more outspoken about how they're going to vote in the upcoming elections than Republicans and unaffiliated voters are.

So there is the possibility of a Red Wave the pollsters are missing - and that the partisan Democrat media refuses to acknowledge.

Graham's point has been made over and over again as the midterms have neared, but last week the former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, who would return to power if the Democrats were to gain those 23 seats, went on the late-night leftist extravaganza hosted by Stephen Colbert and promised that all which is necessary to improve our ugly national political tone is to put her in charge of the House.

If you've paid attention to James O'Keefe's work infiltrating Democrat senatorial and gubernatorial campaigns to do investigative journalism, you've seen a consistent, unmistakable pattern of strategic deception and contempt for the average voter.
