#1 Oh, rat poop! That's "retake" the House.

As Seafarious used to say, "What's wrong with a little dyslexia?"

Fixed

#2 Maybe it was "lysdexia". Blame the Irish whiskey.

#3 I would have fixed it for you, Bobby, but one of our quicker moderators quietly got there first. I love when that happens!

#5 The more important one is the Senate. How do they plan to retake that AND ditch the weak sisters who hold them back? Romney, Murkowski, Sasse, and a couple others must be replaced - their states will send Republicans so why not send conservative populists to replace the swamp things? Plus Georgia will be having a re-do on Warnock. A Senate that can and will block court-packing, judges, etc is far more important than the house.

#6 GOP had both Houses before and didn't do jack egesta.

Supreme Court is in the balance, too, I would say (gawd how I loathe Roberts).

#7 Why do they need to say it is their plan? Shouldn't the house, the senate, the presidency, the governors and the state & local always be the plan for a party?

#9 It's all Kabuki theatre unless you fix the Dominion voting steal...

#10 Yeah. It's really just up to Dominion now.

#11 The precedent was set in November and January.

The Democrat vote fortification operation will find the necessary votes if the Democrats want to find the necessary votes.

#12 I'd like to see Sarah Palin primary Murkowski.

#13 Kind of think that if they don't control the House they should be trying to retake the house. Seems common sense.

#14 Ooooo, finally a plan! Maybe next they will send out an appeal for money with really good graphics and stirring words about things they think i care about. Gosh, maybe they can even work in that wholesome idea of being bipartisan since that really means so much! Again, party of evil and party of stupid format appears right on schedule.

#15 Wow, really?!

Not the Senate though, just the House.

Charlie, your last chance to out-bid the democrats to Dominion came and went by not hitting the mail-in fraud. Could have kept playing the game. You too democrats, done stuck it in the mashed potatoes too.

Now?

#16 Will ALWAYS be NANCY'S HOUSE until she retires and they know it.

#17 Won't happen so long as the mail-in ballot clusterfook exists.

If the last 4 years taught us anything, it's that we don't need to swap out a few Uniparty members for new faces; we need a complete overhaul of our country's political institutions. They're hopelessly corrupt.

Without thorough institutional reform -- of our elections, our media and tech industries, our security apparatus and our administrative state -- absent reform and recalibration of all of the above, nothing will change.

#18 In a low-tech past I seem to recall the prompt and salutary efficacy of lampposts somewhere in that reform concept
