What are they afraid of? In 2018 the Democrats have to defend three times as many Senate Seats as the Republicans.
If President Trump gets a third of what he proposed done
before that time, we could well have a 60 Vote block.
If that happens, The Turtle wouldn’t have to worry about it anyway.
Florida, Indiana, Maine, Mich, Missouri, Montana, NJ, Pennsylvania, North Dakota, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin.
Republicans defend only AZ and Nevada, neither of which has an incumbent guaranteed of winning, although AZ would likely remain R if not Flake.
Manchin in WV may switch to R by 2018, Kaine in VA would likely win, as might Menendez in NJ, but the others are iffy. Stabelow in Mich, McCaskil in Mizzou, Heitkemp in ND, Tester Montana, Nelson in Florida and Indiana....all are right around 50%, except Kaine and Menendez who are higher.
