8 Senators of our 55 are from Blue States.

ME (2)
PA (2)
NH (2)
RI (1)
OR (1)

RI is the only one in a non-swing state.

Frankly, our biggest problem is six Democrat Senators sitting in the following seats in non-swing state Red states:

ND (2)
SD (1, was 2 Bye bye Tommy boy!)
MT (1)
NE (1)
IN (1)

AR and WV will take a lot more time to work on to depose the Democrat incumbents. OTOH, there is no reason for a state voting 58-66% Republican for President, like those above, to elect 1 or 2 Democrats to the Senate.

We could also use just a single Senate seat in the following swing states - WI, MI, NJ, IL, WA, and DE, like we have in NM, IA, MN, OR.

Do that - take our Prarie stronghold and split the swing states, and we have 68 Republicans in the Senate.

There is a tidal change coming.

Pres. Bush didn't accidentally choose Gonzalez as AG. Nor did he accidentally put Estrada up for judicial nomination. The Hispanic community noticed and realized they'd be far better off being a swing bloc than a wholly owned (and ignored) subsidiary of the elitist, liberal establishment.
