Democratic Upset in Alaska maybe a sign that the GOP bubble is bursting

The Congressional special election victory in Alaska for Democrat Mary Peltola to finish the term of late Republican Rep. Don Young, is making the GOP Leadership buy antacids by the case. Peltola is the first Native Alaskan women to be elected in the state and a warning alarm that the upcoming Red Tide in November is falling apart.


Many in the national media have been predicting that the Republicans will retake control of both houses of Congress in the November Midterm Elections. Then the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs Wade, and the dominos began to fall. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas added fuel to the fire when he wrote in his concurring opinion, that the Supreme Court "should reconsider" its past rulings on codifying rights to contraception access, same-sex relationships, and same-sex marriage.


Then the FBI raid on Trump's Mar-a Lago home and the recovery of Top Secret documents, throw in the election tampering case in Georgia, and the New York tax fraud case, and many Republicans in toss up elections are beginning to have real doubts in their campaign plans. Many have been tap dancing over questions about the January 6th attempted Coup, but now many are beginning to scrub their websites of all mentions of their campaigns endorsement by Donald Trump. They are even removing their past support of the Pro-Life movement, which national polls are now showing the great majority of voters are supporting a woman's right to control their own bodies.


President Biden approval ratings is on the rise and he is now zeroing in on Republicans who supported the insurrection by their silence or have been boasting their support by Donald Trump. The Republican Party were making big plans for their control of Congress just a few months ago but like sands through an hourglass, those dreams maybe slipping away.
