I wish it weren’t so, but here’s where I would lay my money: “Democrats Hold Senate Majority and Post Big Gains in Statehouses.”

My guess is we knock of one incumbent (Pryor) but they take down Roberts. Landrieu is forced to a run-off.

Democrats hold all their contested open seats except Montana and South Dakota. Republicans hold their except Georgia, which heads to a run-off. We go into the election 45-55, and come out of it 47-51, and expect to split the runoffs (Rs win LA, Ds win GA), for a final result of 48-52.

Begich and Hagan win, by margins that are so narrow, while Shaheen and Mark Udall win by margins that are so wide, that is clear that Republican strategists blew two winnable races to chase two other races that were never going to happen. But because that would have only led to staying in the minority 50-51 (Biden breaking the tie), it’s really not that big an incremental loss in the nuclear option Senate.
