"SNIP.........

“After the latest round of changes, Inside Elections now has 68 Republican seats rated as vulnerable compared to just 10 vulnerable Democratic seats. And there are at least a couple dozen more GOP-held seats that could develop into competitive races in the months ahead.”

“That discrepancy in the playing field is reminiscent of previous ‘wave’ elections. In April 2010, there were 68 vulnerable Democratic House seats and 11 vulnerable Republican seats. Republicans gained 63 seats later than year. And in May 2006, there were 42 vulnerable Republican seats and 11 vulnerable Democratic seats. Six months later, Democrats gained 30 seats.”

6. If we show up, we win. Period.

[DemoHack]

9. Absolutely - MUST show up!

Turnout like last December's Alabama special election.

If turnout is "meh" we may win 10-15 seats but not enough to win back the House and we'll be epically disappointed.

10. I agree we should not get overly confident, but I don't believe we were over confident in 2016.

That is a media talking point so they can bash HRC and say she got arrogant and cost herself the win. This is the story they want to tell.

Hillary was campaigning with Al Gore in Florida reminding people of how close elections can be. She never took victory for granted.
