Republicans are worried that touting this year’s tax cut bill and tying Democrats to House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., won’t be enough to hold the House and Senate in the November midterms.
While GOP lawmakers maintain that both are important campaign issue, some believe the party is leaning too heavily on them, particularly in light of some predictions that they are about to lose upwards of 45 House seats. Rep. Conor Lamb’s, D-Pa., likely victory over Rick Saccone in Pennsylvania last Tuesday also showed both arguments can be neutralized.
