Gop has a chance to keep the house still.

In the same sense that the Jets have a chance of making the playoffs, yes.

Not American so could be wrong, but I've read that only part of the Senate's seats were being renewed, and most of the renewed ones were already democrats, so they can't gain a lot there.

The House is entirely renewed? 

Yeah.  The house is entirely renewed.  Senate seats change every six years, house every two.  So, every even numbered year the entire house is up.

Nah. Every House seat is up for election but only a third of Senate seats. It's just a cyclical thing that this round happened to favor Republicans.

Yeah, I understand that, but it seems that republicans are actually performing better than expected in senate races.  you'd expect even if the seats themselves favored the republicans the margins would be worse than they are.  But, I'm not an expert, so I could be wrong to be surprised.

i know nothing of sports, so i assume you are mocking.
