Headline is remarkably true when you see what he actually said.

That’s correct but he may never have to think on his feet. He can ride the wave of right wing media support while Trump relies on news max or whatever. Zero reason to debate, and it won’t hurt him at all. His base knows what’s up.

There is no way there aren’t other Republicans with egos big enough to think they can beat DeSantis that they would quietly just let debates not happen.

Klobs just said Mark Kelly is loved by everyone in the Senate including Republicans.

He’s an Astronaut?

I think Sisolak also lost a major union endorsement. I forget if they endorsed Lombardo or nobody, but it cost him.

Yeah Mark Kelly is sort of the John McCain of Democrats. Obviously not the greatest on policy, but he seems like a genuine person with integrity and a compelling personal story, one that includes tragedy and perseverance that people can relate to. Plus he flew the goddam space shuttle.

He isn’t “loved by Republicans” though. That is just her doing her “book one for the Centrist Dem bipartisanship” fever dream bullshit.

Last time the house had a 1 seat majority, in 1930.

Just remember how 2018 turned from kinda solid to blowout 10 days later thanks to California’s “innovative” counting process.

So, looking like an even Senate (maybe even +1 seat for Dems) and the GOP winning the House by a few seats.

That’s kind of insane. With Biden mostly sucking, a stagnant economy and GOP partisan gerrymandering, the fact that it’s still this close is pretty embarrassing for Republicans.
