Again, nope.. one rogue Senator is not worth $30 Million!! Republicans are heading into a Senatorial Election that is almost certain to see them gain a few seats.. just look at the map of which seats are up in 18.... 1 Rouge senator for 12 months isn’t going to affect much of anything.... This isn’t about ideology or anything so simple... something bigger is in play that that... and no one is talking...
If Kennedy retires from SCOTUS in June, then one less vote for confirmation will be significant. It gives more power to Collins, McCain, Flake, Graham, etc.
The winner of this election will fill the seat for the remainder of Sessions‘ term, due to end on January 3, 2021.

I agree. So many “tea party” candidates have turned out to be easily controlled regular establishment senators once they win, such as Rubio, Sasse, etc. From what I have read, Moore will not be easily controlled. That is why it is so important to them.
For the Democrats it is!
