If you would've asked me who I thought was going to win the mid terms just 2 weeks ago, I would've told you without hesitation that democrats seem like they were going to do it. But after this Kavanaugh showing. I'm not so sure anymore, they've not only energized the lazy republican base, but also have turned away independent voters who might have been on their side. Just a really bad strategy. 

He was getting the job anyways in my opinion, but I do think more people have woken up to vote. Those that vote red have always voted red, some are changing to blue, and those who never voted before is going to. Can't wait to see how this turns out.

If the Dems get sunk by a red wave, it could be a blessing in one regard. While probably unlikely, there has been an increase in talks about the economy/markets crashing. Now while that may just be another BS story with some political push behind it, if that were to by chance take place, the Dems could probably stay home during the 2020 election and still win.

If the Dems hold no power whatsoever, and the economy/markets crash, the entire blame will be on Trump and they will absolutely drill that into everyone's head non stop. If the Dems have some control, more or less, if the economy/markets crash now, while they will try and blame Trump, he will simply say that things were fine until the Dems got some control and now look at what's happened.

After seeing this, I knew this election was going to be one to watch.
