    Paul Ryan on PA-18: "I think the President helped close this race...I think you saw the public polling. The public polling wasn't looking so good and the President came in and helped close this race and got it to where it is right now, which is within a few hundred votes."

        The president probably did close the race, but not in the way Paul Ryan is trying to suggest.

        Worth considering the equation: is it more bolstering for republican morale/turnout to pretend all is well or not? Dealing with Fox News consciousness is weird.

        The entire GOP/Trump/NRA/Evangelical brand is based on ignoring reality so I'm not sure if being on top of facts and figures now would really help them in terms of electoral prospects.

        I think Paul Ryan is having kind of a crappy day.

        Definitely. This should be the strategy for every 2018 race.

        According to Ryan’s logic a solidly GOP district with a 20 point advantage in 2016 went south in spite of the hugely popular tax cut and repeal of the mandate and Trump managed to almost bring him across the line....ugh ok

        I think he'll have some time this fall to think and fish and hunt and watch the Packers and bring out coffee to the private security firm which guards his Janesville mansion and drink quietly while looking at Asian women on the Internet, as many Wisconsinites do.

        Let’s hope the president helps “close” other tight races. Trump should campaign in every flippable district. but don’t expect me to listen to his ranting - there are limits
