Yes, This WAS a Wave Election

[MMC]

Only blue wave I've seen is my Democratic neighbors driving by waving at me.

Failing to flip the Senate means any impeachment will fail and 2 or 3 more court nominations.

I suspect the House Democrats will focus on going after Trump to the disappointment of their constituents who elected them for other reasons.

They failed to pick up Iowa and Ohio governorships that they threw a whole lot of money to try and pick up.

They failed to pick up over half of the governorships.


Now they are failing to pick up Florida, despite their cheating. lol.

Give dems enough time to magically find new ballots to help create a wave.

Who says we don't have manufacturing jobs?

I find the ongoing claims by some conservatives that "the predicted blue wave didn't materialize" to be more than a little disingenuous. Let us consider the evidence:
...
So let's have no more talk of this election constituting a reaffirmation of Trump and the Republican Party. It was clearly nothing of the kind.

If it comforts you to call it a blue wave go for it.


It is a bad sign for the nation.

Seemed like a stalemate to me

And let's hope it stays that way for some time to come.

Less of a wave. More of a ripple.

317 of 435 house seats are to the left? I started laughing right then. The Dems have gained nothing. The House can't pass into law one thing they promised. not one.

Polly, you are in for a shocking two years. Then it gets worse. Every state that voted for Trump is still his for 2020 with the possible exception of Michigan. He still wins.

Election results 2018: Forget the blue wave and behold the purple puddle.....

Well, it wasn’t the huge Blue Wave we were promised, a change in Congress on a par with the Tea Party’s “shellacking” of President Barack Obama in 2010, or President Bill Clinton’s big midterm losses in 1994. It looks more like a Blue Slosh. Or maybe a Purple Puddle. The Democrats regained some ground, but it wasn’t the overwhelming repudiation of President Donald Trump and the Republicans they were hoping for.



Likewise, the Democrats will have to decide whether to weaponize the House via investigations and subpoenas or to work with the president. Rendell strongly encouraged the latter, but the party’s Trump-hating base will strongly favor the former. On the other hand, the Trump-hating base failed to produce the promised Blue Wave.....snip~

More from USA Today. Let the depression set in for the leftness. The more they are depressed the better it is for the country.

Well Polly, the naive Leftist, will be pleased that the People's Republik of New Yorkistan is now under one party Leftist rule.
