Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

All About The Senate

 Mitch McConnell's behavior on the Barrett nomination is that of someone who expects to lose the White House but retain the Senate. Polls certainly show that Biden SHOULD win next week. (No, it's not 2016.) 

Democrats should flip Senate seats in Maine, Arizona and Colorado. Republicans will likely flip Alabama. That means North Carolina, Iowa and Montana are the likely deciders as to whether the  Biden Presidency is strangled in the cradle. Georgia, Kansas and Texas could be in the mix, too.

That's it. That's the battleground.
