Stephen A. Smith: Democrats will likely win midterms, but they 'will mess up anything'
Key takeaways
- Smith predicted that Democrats have a 75 percent chance of winning the midterm elections and gaining control of at least one of the chambers of Congress — but that they could still blow it.
- The Democrats could blow a 29-point lead, just the way the San Antonio Spurs did in the playoffs, Smith said, referencing the New York Knicks come-from-behind win in Game 4 during this month s NBA Finals.
- Don t put anything past the Democrats when it comes to that.
Why this matters: political developments that affect policy direction and public trust.

Democrats can blow anything. The Democrats could blow a 29-point lead, just the way the San Antonio Spurs did in the playoffs, Smith said, referencing the New York Knicks come-from-behind win in Game 4 during this month s NBA Finals.
Don t put anything past the Democrats when it comes to that. They will get in their own way. They will mess up anything if you give them an opportunity to, because they re divided, they re fragmented, Smith said when ITK caught up with him at the Mark Twain Prize ceremony at the Kennedy Center on Sunday.
