You are aware of the difference between being in the majority and minority are you not? Republican control of the Senate is a long shot at best, but this almost guarantees that we will not regain the majority.

-----------------------------------------------------------

You are aware that, because of cloture, a Senate majority means much less than a House majority, are you not?

Defeating Castle is a risk, in that he did poll better in November, but it is a risk worth taking. Politics is constantly changing, as are the dynamics of constructing a governing majority. A few years ago, no one would have anticipated that a far left presidential candidate would win states that had long voted Republican.

This year, the Republican party has a once in a generation opportunity to elect candidates who support substantive change, not RINO's who vote to raise spending 2% less than the DemonRats.

The GOP wins 12 seats and Control 52-47-1. Now get on board with the program.

Chairmanships are extremely important, also the majority leader. If Reid goes down and the Rats retain the majority Schumer will be the majority leader. I shouldn’t have have to spell out what that means for the 2nd amendment.
