1. The sky is falling ...oh dear.

We have a secret weapon ...Trump.

3. 2017 AL US Senate Special Election could be the race that could give Democrats the momentum in

regaining control of the US Senate in 2018.
Democrats in AL nominate former US Attorney Doug Jones-D, Republicans nominate former Chief Justice Roy Moore-R. Moore's extreme ideology and Bentley scandals could help Jones-D win the 2017 AL US Senate Election. Democrats will have 49 seats.
2018 -Democrats pick up NV and AZ (Republican incumbent Jeff Flake loses in the Republican primary to Kelli Ward-R who then loses in the November General Election to Randy Freise-D). Democrats will have 51seats.
Highly Vulnerable Democratic incumbents in IN,MO,and ND win re-election.

6. Let us hope...

I still think the Senate could flip too if Trump continues his nuttiness.

2. Don't cross off Texas.....

Cruz is trailing in the polls.

4. If Cruz-R loses re-election to O'Rourke-D, it will mean we have a Democratic wave in 2018.

Heller-NV and Flake-AZ will also lose in November 2018.
O'Rourke(D-TX) does not have the luxury the Democratic nominee of AZ has (Republican incumbent loses in the Republican primary to a more extreme candidate) or the Democratic nominee of NV has (Democratic nominee is running in a more Democratic friendly State than TX). The TX US Senate Race depends on what type of candidate O'Rourke is?

5. It will be difficult and he needs to be more aggressive...

What really helps O'Rourke is his cross state tour. He is visiting every county and going in the trenches to deep red territories. Hopefully this strategy will bring out more Democratic voters in those areas.

It is well overdue for Texas to turn blue. Everyone down here is pumped and ready. Plus I have noticed all my Republican friends have been super quiet since mid March.
