8. More wishful thinking than reality

Lots can happen in the next 18 months. If the economy improves then incumbents will do well regardless if they had anything to do with it or not. Will not be surprised if the Repubs hold these gerrymandered seats and maybe pick up Schwart's if she decides runs for governor.

I honestly hope for some D pickups, but living in PA has been disappointing to say the least as far as election results.
