Democrats can take back the Senate in 2016 after a stinging, nine-seat defeat last year — but their path is narrow, and any gains could be fleeting.
The party needs to capture four or five seats — depending on the results of the presidential election — next November. While the 2016 map is favorable, flipping control of the Senate would require winning most of the toss-up races and defeating several well-funded GOP incumbents in pricey swing states that will also be crucial in the race for the White House.

With McConnell’s help, they’ll take it back.
Talk about Dumb and Dumber. Those two couldn’t run a two car parade, much less run the government.
but, they sure can whip the other elected “republican” representatives and senators into supporting them.
I am sick of it.
Don’t the rats already control it lock, stock, and barrel?
Could’ve fooled me.
Instead you’ll have chucky schumer. Who is orders of magnitude smarter, more evil, and has a safe seat.
2014 was my last election. All done. Let it burn.
No great loss, she became a McCain clone like Grahamnesty almost as soon as she arrived. When the vote counts, count on the Democrats in R jerseys to vote the wrong way.
Agreed. She had the gall to run as Tea Party, of all things, and then when & hid behind McCain’s skirts.
That threshold needs to be at least a Walker if not a Cruz.
Rubio, Bush, Huckabee? Say hello to 2012... And you think Obama was bad, wait for President Sanders...
No, but Chuckie Schumer will, and if you think Dingy Harry was bad, you ain’t seen nothing yet!
We must do all we can do to ensure that Chuckie Schumer does not become Senate Majority Leader!
The problem with “The GOPe needs a harsh lesson” is that they don’t care a whit about “harsh lessons!”
We the People ALWAYS suffer when the GOPe prevails.
Think Conservatives running the US Senate!
Perhaps We the People will teach the GOPe a “harsh lesson” by throwing their capitulating asses out of the Senate!
Maggie Hassan will beat Kelly Ayotte easily.
They kinda do....no doubt about it.
I doubt the GOPe is capable of learning. They keep nominating the same type of people over and over again. Whats that saying about stupidity?
There was a man named “Broun” or “Bruon” who would have been much better that what your feckless voters chose.
I would never “stay home”. I just won’t be voting for Jebbie in any shape, form, or fashion.
Uh, oh don’t say you will stay home and not vote for the GOP-e nominee or you will be blamed for all the ills of the country, cuz you sat it out!
Paul Broun. Good man. I voted for him in the Primary.
