I wouldn't celebrate so soon, flipping the Senate is still an uphill battle.Goodbye Mitch McConnell. I will not miss you.
In late 2019, McConnell was ranked the worst U.S. Senator on a top 10/bottom 10 list. As if that is not bad enough, Kentucky's Republican governor was immediately replaced with a Democrat in November. I have been expecting him to lose ever since.
BTW you know she is vacating her seat. Someone needs to run for it now.

Dems flip Arizona, Colorado, Maine, and maybe North Carolina and/or Iowa.
Reds flip Alabama.
Democrats win the Senate, but not enough to get a filibuster proof majority of 60 Democrats in the Senate.
Democrats have 35 Senators right now. I think America hates Trump, but not enough to get 25 more Democratic Senators.
Dems +2, perhaps +3 at the outside, and gain slight majority for the next Senate.
Put up or shut up: get on record now. What's your fearless prognostication for the Senate races?
I'm guessing that the Democrats pick up four seats, and lose one.
Lose: Alabama
Win: Arizona, Colorado, Maine, North Carolina. (Iowa, Montana and Georgia also in play).
Net gain of three, leaving the Senate in Democratic hands with Vice President Kamala Harris breaking any ties.
We need four more seats to get a majority.
What do you mean by at the outside?
Someone will be elected and someone wont be.Put up or shut up: get on record now. What's your fearless prognostication for the Senate races?
Someone will be elected and someone wont be.
Some will rejoice while others will bemoan the outcome.
Life likely will go on.

I feel fairly confident as an Alabamian that we will choose a loser Auburn football coach who knows jack-**** about politics over a fairly moderate and sensible Democrat who has decent experience.
Sorry ya'll.
