During the 2018 midterms, dozens of “moderate” Democrats won House seats in swing districts by forswearing partisan feuds in order to concentrate on the needs of their constituents. They pledged to focus less on conflict than on finding common ground with their Republican colleagues. They also modulated their comments concerning President Trump and, when the subject of impeachment arose, they insisted that it would be a destructive and unproductive exercise. Thursday, however, all but two voted in favor of a hyper-partisan impeachment resolution, exposing their campaign promises as cynical lies and ensuring that the Democrats will lose their House majority in 2020.

Since the next vote is a year away, all the Democrats that voted to the Impeachment will be re-elected. None of their electors will remember this.

#2, It’s the Republican candidates job to remind them who voted for impeachment. They can’t deny their vote and will have to answer to their Trump supporting constituents. If Republicans are smart, they will remind them who is on the side of economic growth and prosperity and who is not.

The RNC has tons of money to start hitting those Democrat Districts NOW! They will paper those places with Ads asking the Voters WHAT has your Rep. done for you since you voted for them? There will be non stop TV Ads as well. I don't think there is any chance the Voters will "forget" that their Representative voted for Impeachment instead of voting to improve things in their own district. Democrats are going to lost WAY more Seats than they gained in 2018! It will be a Lesson Learned! Republicans learned that lesson with the Clinton Impeachment. Democrats are in their Learning Curve right now! It will finish up Election Day when they see what they've done to their Party!

All the evidence suggests they are going to lose big, but the unknown factor is the voter fraud and vote counting fraud, which they have made into an art form and the republicans seem to have no interest in stopping. It would have to be a real life landslide just to tip the 51% mark.
My optimism is pretty much gone.

The Democrats have been a bloc for as long as I can remember. You are an idiot if you vote for a "moderate" Democrat thinking he is not voting for the Democrat agenda in toto. We get that line every election cycle in my district, and every election I have to point out to the same people over and over that electing ANY Democrat is just another vote in Pelosi's pocket.

I TRULY hope so. These people ran on being middle of the road, vaguely conservative Democrats who wanted to bring us all together, but you can see what a facade that was....the first time they had to stand up and be counted they buckled---assuming they ever meant what they said pre election in any case. And to all those Republicans and Independents who fell for their baloney and are thus responsible for the travesty going on now via Schiff and the Dems, I HOPE you have learned something, You may not like Trump or his Tweets, but when you look at what he has accomplished you should take pause. The Dems are focused on impeachment and letting EVERYTHING else slide. Our Rep, Jim Himes in Ct., is sending out emails for next week re: talks with constituents re: health care, and meanwhile he stands with Schiff and totally avoids it and everything else that needs doing.......you CAN do two things at once, of course, but you have to DO them.

Note to the dim House members from Colorado -
You will be replaced in November 2020. Diane DeGette, Joe Neguse, Jason Crow, and Ed Perlmutter, you hearing footsteps yet? You hung your constituents out to dry by abandoning your progressive promises to focus on their needs. Instead, you focused on your political whims and lies. Even the Denver deep state and local msm including the corrupt Brownstein law firm and Channel 9 News people won't be able to save you this time. My dim-voting friends are mad as hell about what you have done to the state and are voting pubbie next year. There are plenty of young, intelligent, and right-minded pubbie candidates who are emerging and will steam-roll you.

Anyone who loves America and the constitution are disgusted with the dems. They love power-period and will do anything to get it. They should be going after Biden. What a party of crooks.

After Dems won big in 2006 they quickly wore out their welcome. They lost 60+ seats in 2010. History will repeat itself.

#2, if McCain, Mitt or low energy Jeb were leading the Republicans I would agree with you. I have better hopes with PDT.

Here is a dose of history for you people.
Dollar Bill Clinton, in 1993, broke his promise about income taxes, and the dimocrats, controlling both Houses of Congress, pushed it through.
A first term congresswoman, a former TV anchor, who was married to Ed Mezvinsky, and represented a suburban Philadelphia congressional district, voted in favor of the tax increase, turning against her own constituents. Dollar Bill Clinton bought her vote by promising to go to her district. It didn't work.
She lost her bid for reelection. Her husband, Ed, ran for Pa attorney general (he had been a congressman from Nebraska, I think) and lost.
Ed would go on to be convicted and imprisoned for investment fraud. And his son, Marc, would go on to marry Chelsea Clinton.
If the republicans get their act together, they can win back the House, and expand their control of the senate. But they have to work at it, because too many voters are dunces, including members of my own family.

#2 The Democrats are broke financially, intelligently and morally. President Trump will have huge coattails and a lot of money to spend to remind the American people how corrupt the Democrats are.

Agree #5. If the Deep State is prepared to go to the lengths that they have over these various hoaxes, do we really think they'll play fair in any election? It's like one of those commercials for pest treatment: all the while this nonsense is going on, the termites are busy eating away at the voting system as well. "They" are driven by fear.
Who are "they"? It's kind of like Parallax from the Green Lantern movie. The anti-Trump movement is a coalescing of different constituents of elites and privileged and criminal that are all fearful for one reason or another that a non Deep Stater would visit karma on them all. They, in turn, are prepared to visit the most extreme violence on the country to prevent this. ("evil appears as good in the minds of those whom god leads to destruction". Sophocles)

Time to tell the truth. This war will not be won at the ballot box. The Dems have already amply shown that they will cheat to win and if they lose, they will just lie and cheat some more. Solution? Use your brain. I shouldn't have to spell it out. Look at the history of this country.

Thank Eddie Munster Paul Ryan for what happened on Thursday with the democrat shenanigan's. Problem is we have to endure this until the 2020 election because Pelosi doesn't care a twit about what happens. The old denture sucking witch knows she's on her last broom ride that will not end well.

Let's hope this is true. In effect they lied to their constituents: "Elect me and I'll push for bipartisan legislation that will improve the country and its citizens." The reality: "Elect me and I'll do whatever Aunt Nancy tells me to do."

Please read the impeachment resolution: https://www.scribd.com/docu...
Per section 2, Marxists Schiff and Nadler get to approve or deny any Republican witness. Schiff still gets to hold secret hearings and will thereby still get to coach witnesses and still get to leak whatever he wants with of course, a compliant Marxist press.The Marxists in the House, MANY Republicans, and of course the Marxist media are counting on convincing voters, most of whom believe in purple unicorns that poop Skittles, that the hearings are open and transparent and that Orange Man Bad needs to be impeached. Trump will be impeached by the House. No question about that. What will not surprise me is that Marxists will get the twenty Republicans they need in the Senate (including Ms Graham and Buh-buh-buuuuuuhhhhh bipartisan Mitch McConnell) to vote to convict and remove.
Donald Trump will be impeached for the crimes committed by the Marxists since 2009.
Watch the free Glenn Beck videos at the Blaze, download the free, unarguable documentation and evidentiary proof that Obama, Hillary and Biden are the criminals along with the deep state players. You'll be able to easily see that the Marxist, Marxist media, deep state and many Republicans are the real criminals. The "quid pro quo" phone call is nothing more than an empty, non-crime, shiny object which will impeach Trump. The real evidence and real crimes in Ukraine committed by the American Marxists will NEVER be covered by our Marxist media.

If the people that elected these Democrats realize how lawless and destructive this vote for impeach is, they will vote them out of office. Unfortunately, many believe the lies they are constantly being told by Democrats and the MSM.
By concentrating all of their efforts on this vendetta against President Trump they have done nothing for the people that elected them. I hope the people notice the improvements in their well-being are due in large measure to President Trump

#2's statement is proven false by what happened to the Republican majority House after their successful and righteous Impeachment of Bill Clinton.

Ads need to start NOW in those districts. "Congresscritter Joe Blow voted to run a secret-star-chamber-kangaroo-court with Shifty Schiff and Nancy Pelosit to impeach President Trump, whom you voted for in 2016. He said he was going to Washington to work for you, but went to work for Schiff, Pelosi, and the Squad. Tell Congresscritter Blow that he's gonna be out of work in January 2021."

We are going take care of Joe here in SC. People are mad and we have some good conservatives running against him. His wife is crazy and thinks health care should pay for their marriage counseling so she is stupid and crazy. We are going kick his butt out.

Aside from Trump being re-elected imagine the pain to Nancy when the Speaker's gravel is ripped from her hands for the 2nd & last time. Plus moving outta the big office:)

Democrats breaking campaign promises and lying is not a new thing. Their sleazy careers will not skip a beat. It would help if the Republicans who oppose them could grow a backbone but apparently that's asking too much. Pat Toomey in Pennsylvania might as well be a democrat as well. He's not a native Pennsylvanian but a Rhode Island transplant, which explains a lot.
