10. Another storm is also coming..The Kochs, Mercers & others will finance a "storm" of attack ads
Mon Apr 2, 2018, 03:25 PM

aimed at all Dems running for Congress (House and Senate) this year.
Money will be no problem for them.
I predict that the Koch brothers & the Mercers alone will spend more than $1 billion this fall running their negative, attack ads.

Democrats must "get out the vote" this time, because if only 25 percent actually vote, the GOP will still control both houses of Congress after November 6.

The DNC, the DCCC, & the DSCC all need to work together this time.
A unified Democratic Party will win back the House, (and even possibly the Senate as well)
If the "Berniecrats" are not included in DNC leadership, the Repukes will prevail, imo.
A united Democratic Party will do well on November 6.
A divided Democratic Party will not do well on November 6.
