I think CO Gardner and Maine Collins are up in 2020 as will be John McCain’s seat in AZ.

Lee isn’t a problem.

It is going to be Romney, Collins, and Murkowski.

Gardner is the only GOP candidate vulnerable in a state trending Blue.

He might beat the odds like Susan Collins does in her state.

The other AZ seat could well turn Blue. Apart from AL, GOP Senate pickups don’t look good in 2020.

Collins and Murkowski (the crooked skank) will always be problems.

For all their flaws, they’re still preferable to Democrats.

If these are the best we can do, we’re in deeper trouble than we thought.

“Crazy, crooked, cowardly and stupid is no way to be a Republican senator.”

Oops, I just wiped out half of the GOP senators. My bad!

So this is not considered a victory for women by the media? Oh, that’s right. Only LIBERAL women get to count.

Although you can bet the media will now tell us how racist the South still is.... couldn’t win in Florida, couldn’t win in Georgia, couldn’t win in Mississippi, yada yada yada. Bunch of hoods-wearing Klansmen on every corner, all sporting MAGA caps...

Is Peters well known in MI? Trump must carry MI in 2020

I can’t speak to how well Peters is known in Michigan. From what I can gather online, he seems a bit of a non-entity.

Peters succeeded the retiring Dem Sen. Carl Levin in 2014 by beating a weak Republican, Terri Lynn Land. She committed unforced errors by not disclosing all assets and being visibly unprepared to field questions after a policy conference.

John James gave Stabenow a tough fight, and I think will probably do much better against Peters, a much weaker opponent.

Peters is a backbencher , rank-and-file members of the U.S. Congress not part of party leadership.

She pronounces it Missy Sippy instead of Missus Sippy. So weird. But glad she won.

53 - 47 senate!

Earlier this fall there were people predicting a 62 to 38 senate. Having 53 seats in a Senate with Collins, Murkowski, Paul, Sasse, and Romney is no comfort.

Espy is a victim? So many who were lynched will not be vindicated in the election of Espy.....so much liberal fascist insanity.

Concede Espy and exit gracefully.

She beat him by far more than the reported margin. The Democrats cheated to get it as close as it was.
