Adam Schiff says these are the Senate seats to flip: ME, AZ, NC, MT, CO, SC, IA and GA








I see some worrying on twitter about giving money to Amy McGrath. 2 thoughts on that:

1. The more we force Mitch to spend money to defend himself, even if he ultimately wins, the LESS he has to give to other GOP senators. And the more we build and train KY Dem election infrastructure.

2. Psychological black ops work both ways. We want to them to operate defensively out of fear - that's when bad decisions get made.

I haven’t donated to her or Jones. My money is better spent on seats we actually have a chance at victory.

We win southern states based on getting most black and other minority votes. And then just enough white votes to win.

In Kentucky Democrats would have to do very well with white voters to win .

Insider Trader and white collar criminal, Kelly Loeffler, is running to keep the seat given to her after David Perdue left to become a Trump toady. She is running against Rev. Raphael Warnock. https://twitter.com/ReverendWarnock Everyone seems to forget about him. Help him out if you can, please.
