I'm with you on the Senate pick up. I've just had a niggling feeling that was gonna happen. I don't think there's gonna be a clear "winner" in this election and that both parties are gonna be disappointed. I've said that before and it bears repeating. McConnell will remain the minority leader. Schumer can safely burn the filibuster to the ground and the Republican-controlled House will act like right-wing weirdos making independents roll their eyes and think "Again?...No."

All I'm lacking is that Democratic candidate...a chimera of sorts...a mystery...

But I'm also thinking the results of the midterms will be good for both parties, forcing them into some bipartisan compromise on some of the easier issues.
