I agree entirely with 77. I've been saying since Romney ran in 2012 that Republican candidates need to campaign on sending a slate of like-minded people to Washington to work with the President to deliver the agenda. For example, from my October 13, 2012 Election Report:

Romney really has to expand his campaign to include rallying with state candidates. He needs to show his coattails and demonstrate that he's a team builder.
As Romney campaigns in swing states, it's time for him to support the Senate slate with a message of building a team for the future. Romney has to convince voters that it's not enough to replace Obama, but that Romney needs a team in Congress, too, to work with him on putting America back on the right track.

I said the same thing about Trump at his rallies in 2016, that he needs to appear at his stump speeches with local candidates and implore voters to send so-and-so to Washington to work with him on xyz.

I hope that today's election is the agent of change to get Republicans to do your #70 in the redo election in November.
