Back with Victor Davis Hansen show Victor before we get into the talking about the Democrats in the Senate I do want to say I got a couple of emails from some folks who heard our

the podcast you and I did which we recorded before the election and like most other people who have given the plethora of polling we had seen on various aspects not only

you know this race and how much so and so is ahead but by news about how the Hispanic bro a vote was breaking for Republicans suburban women's were overwhelmingly breaking for Republicans and none of that seems to have materialized

on election day not even seems to didn't materialize.

So we but we discussed the elections before the elections and the podcast was was aired after the election so that's the risk we we took.

Nevertheless Victor things are still happening the houses yet undecided people keep saying you know the Democrats have to pull an inside straight here to take it over but I don't know my heart is

sinking every day that they never seem our guys are side no mean Republicans if I can be an hour in that or conservatives seem to be like Lucy and trolley round the

ball when it comes to these close races that are recounted or anyway Victor Democrats will have control of the Senate it looks like even no and regardless of what happens in Georgia with a runoff

and the Walker any thoughts on that before we take on some of the other issues. Yeah I mean I know I like a lot of people thought that they would take the Senate and they would get 20 or more seats and the reason I did I didn't just say that I tried to look at four or five criteria this is what's

really disturbing because there's no reference anymore and by that I mean I looked at two polls that I think were ranked third and fifth and accuracy of 25 the 12th

auger poll inside our advantage and on 13 states they had a seven point we know that post facto seven points in favor of the Republican candidate.
