2018 US Senate Election- which US Senate Race is the Macaca (2006 VA US Senate Race)?

In 2006, the last time Democrats regained control of the US Senate, Democrats held onto every Democratic held seat up in 2006(CA,CT,DE,FL,HI,MD,MA,MI,MN,NE,NJ,NM,NY,ND,VT,WA,WV,and WI) and picked up MO,MT,OH,PA,RI,and VA. The 2006 VA US Senate Race outcome gave Democrats the majority in the US Senate.
In 2018- Democrats will pick up AZ,NV,and TN but lose ND and/or MO. TX(Cruz-R losing to O'Rourke-D) is going to give Democrats the majority in the US Senate in 2018.

If a Democrat wins the 2020 US Presidential Election, the 2022 US Senate Election is less hostile

than in the 2010 and 2014 US Senate Election during the Obama Presidency.
In 2010- Democrats lost AR,IL,IN,ND,PA,and WI. AR,IN,and ND are Solid Red states, IL was lost due to the Blagojevich scandal.
In 2014- Democrats lost AK,AR,CO,IA,LA,MT,NC,SD,and WV. AK,AR,LA,MT,SD, and WV are Solid Red States.
In 2022- There are no Democratic held US Senate seats from Red States up in 2022. AZ-if Democrats win the seat in 2018/2020 special election, CO,NV,and NH are purple States.
