Nope, no blue wave in California. GOP actually better poised for gains because of the Trump wave

Well, the big blue wave didn’t turn out quite as Democrats thought it would.

The press is reporting they avoided panic, given that most of their candidates secured spots on the top-two on the November midterm ballot.  Whoop-de-doo.  That’s not a blue wave, and it’s certainly not victory.  Instead, what we saw were signs of Republican strength in a state written off as solid blue, with bigger than expected margins for the GOP that all the Trump-haters out there in the establishment could forecast.  We also saw a significant rejection of Democratic Party organizational favorites, which is a sign that voters are tired of their lockstep voting practices.  A third thing we notice is that heavy television spenders, such as Paul Kerr and Sarah Jacobs, didn’t make it.  This, remember, was what Hillary Clinton did instead of going to Wisconsin.  It still fails.
