Chris Cillizza of CNN sums up some of the notable changes in the world of political handicapping following Tuesday’s big Democratic pickup in a special election in Pennsylvania:
On Friday, CNN changed the ratings of 17 House contests — all in Democrats favor. The Cook Political Report, a nonpartisan handicapping site, moved 9 races in Democrats’ favor on Friday as well…
…CNN rates 69 GOP-held seats as competitive as compared to just 15 for Democrats. The Cook Report now carries 73 Republican seats as competitive compared to a meager 17 for Democrats. Inside Elections, another political tip sheet, has 57 Republican seats in its competitive ranks and just 12 Democratic seats.
Democrats need only 23 seats to re-take the majority in the House of Representatives.

Hey nutlid. I know you wanted to talk about the PA-18 Special Election. Now is your chance!!!!!
Because he only strikes unprompted:
"He ran as the Trump candidate"
"He's conservative and unwelcome in the Democrat party, he'll be a Republican in no time"
"Same polls that said Hillary was ahead???"
"…but the Senate!"
And we can post stats of GOP state legislative losses since Trump took office. Their losses outweigh their gains 10 to 1.
Does that include Lebsock's 45-minute stint as a GOP state rep?
Nope. Not the result of an election.
I remember there being a vote?
. . . or “due process,”
. . . or a thing?
Lebsock is going to be treasurer right?
Only in his own mind.
Ain’t over ‘til the fat lady sings.
