    I believe 2022 was supposed to be the year that the Dems had a chance to switch the Senate. This was before COVID and 2020 happened.

    If I recall correctly, there is about 20-22 seats opened up Republicans and 12-14 seats for Democrats.

    Running against Biden's drool cup, maybe.

    Mamala might have to step in.

    Good ole Ted Cruz. Picking Trump's pubes out of his teeth.

    Economist's aggro-sims (which also takes in 538 data, among many others) still say Harrison has ways to go before it becomes a coin toss.

    This despite getting 49% of the vote share.

    One hamstring away...

    Its a good move. Epsy in Mississippi is suddenly competitive and so is the AK race. Warnocks in some polls is leading the GA race.

    This GA Senate race will likely have a run-off race in January 2012, with the two top contenders of which Warnocks is now one.

    Look, Ted has seen his team go 0-27 on 3s, so he knows a bad run when he sees it.
