If somehow we manage to win three or four of four seats (Alaska, Georgia, North Carolina, and Georgia) without losing any seats previously secured, then we can hold the Senate. Sure, Mitt Romney and Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski would provide the controlling votes, but they’re vastly better than any Democrat. Even if both Alaska and North Carolina fall, and the Democrat in Alaska already has declared victory, then still, every seat matters for years to come. The Democrats will experience their own difficulties and consequent important legislative delays in maintaining the unanimity of their caucus against a unified Republican opposition.
So, even though the Democrats probably will win both of these Senate seats, the Republicans still should fight hard and try with every little bit they have to muster a victory so convincing as to overwhelm the Democrat fraud machine. And it wouldn’t hurt to pray for some nasty ice and snow storms in Atlanta on the election day to snarl the mails and deter potential Democrat voters from hobbling to the polls. Wins are important and unlikely but not entirely impossible. Fight to win.
