21. We have a small, but legitimate shot at this seat.

We have to mobilize every single Democrat and Independent we can find. And even then, this race will probably be decided by a point or less.

Yes, a majority of people in Alabama are bible thumping, brainwashed Republicans. But there are still decent people (as epitomized by Doug Jones) that are willing to fight for a decent state and nation. We need to encourage them, give them hope, and financial support.
