TPM: GOP Civil War That Doesn't Exist (by Josh Marshall)

8. I seriously hope Jamie's right. But I've heard "we won't get complacent" before.

Wisconsin and Ohio are potential pick ups in the Senate. That's a source of hope. But we're operating without a margin of error this time.

The last time a Democratic president didn't lose control of Congress in the midterms was 1978.

And I'm sorry to say this, but the rest of your comments reads like complacence. I can't imagine that the Republicans won't be back in the good graces of Corporate America in the next few months (anyway, they're not mad at all Republicans, just a few). Once Trump is off the headlines, they'll be back to their old 60% R - 40% D campaign donation ratios. Control of the White House may have changed. The blind money-lust of the US Chamber of Commerce lobby has not. Don't overread their brief reprimand to Hawley or Cruz. Corporate America wants the Republicans in charge of the Senate. They've done well under divided government. That won't change.
