No big loss there. I know every seat counts, but I'm at the point where I simply want to see Republicans hold their seats in states Romney won in 2012, and defend 2-3 key states that Obama won in 2012 ... like Florida, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire.

One of the best pieces of news I heard today is that Johnson has really closed the gap on Feingold in Wisconsin over the last few days, so there is a faint hope that the GOP can hold that seat.

The Republicans are defending a lot of seats this year, and they don't really have a good chance to pick up seats currently held by Democrats -- even with retiring Democratic incumbents in a few states.

I’m in PA.

Did a lot to get Toomey elected originally. Sent him $100 this fall.

But he still hasn’t endorsed Trump, to my knowledge.

I responded to his “It’s your last chance” email this morning, with, “No, it’s yours.”

I can’t fathom why he won’t endorse Trump.

Trump will carry more seats than Romney or McCain. But of course the media will spin it as a Trump induced loss when the GOP lose a few seats. It’s to be expected given the historicly large House majority and unfavorable Senate races.
