Tester is acting a little stupid. He is not going to win by antagonizing Dems. There is a balance and I think he has lost that balance. He does not have to put himself in a bind by saying he won't break filibuster. Okay? If that is true, he is finished

Going right to the GOP is a guaranteed way to lose for a Dem. Maybe if the candidate was independent can this work. Otherwise the voters might as well vote for the GOP candidate which is how we got saddled with Vance.

Sure hope Collin can pump up his ads like Cruz has done. It helps.

We can actually win NC. I favor making a play everywhere, but Texas and Florada are probably fools's gold. NC, OTOH, can and SHOULD be won.

We have a great candidate in FL running against Scott. Debbie Murcarsel-Powell. We've also got some good Democratic candidates who could flip congressional seats.

Whitney Fox is running against Anna Paulina Looney in St. Pete's district. It is definitely flippable.

There are so many insane partisan repukes that are in districts that they want to stay repuke! I just worry the votes not for repukes will not be counted and thrown out at higher rates for made up reasons.
