Blue ripple it is then, with economic growth now 2.3% from almost 4% last quarter.We have 6 months to go for more deterioration in institutions due to lack of funding, poor funding of infra projects due to lack of taxes [Wall Street Banks made an extra 3.6 billion from tax cuts, invested nothing back for creating jobs in rust belt], No Sign of any Wall, General Mattis praising the Iran Deal and a surge in France/Germany politically calling the shots where once USA strutted like a Colossus.Blue ripple it is.RandallThere will be no blue wave. Here's why: "It's all about the economy, stupid!" Unemployment is near 2% in several states. The stock market has gained almost 4.5 trillion in wealth. The Dems are defending 25 Senate seats. The Republicans are only defending 8. The Senate is safe by any stretch of the imagination. The Dems have to gain 24 seats in the House to gain the majority. While it's customary for the party of the POTUS to lose the House in the mid-terms, it has not been a foregone conclusion in the past. In 2002, it did not work out that way. And all bets are off where President Trump is concerned. I'd expect some losses in the House with the majority retained and several gains in the Senate. For example, in WV, Manchin is at 35% approval with President Trump at 87%. The Dems are $6 million in debt, and the Republicans have $42 million in cash.

Blue ripple it is.

They've lost nine points' worth of approval among Millennials over the last two years, according to Ipsos/Reuters, and now less than half of them (46%) have any enthusiasm for Democrats, according to a very big 16,000-person online poll of members of the demographic group.
