If it wasn’t for Walker in Georgia we could be talking about Oz being the worst Senate candidate in memory. Remotely acceptable candidates would have beaten post stroke Fetterman and far left Warnock. Sadly, the Republican primaries gave us Walker and Oz.


I think you are giving JD Vance a big pass. That chubby boy has been MIA for a while now.

Not anymore. I grew up in Ohio.

Michigan > Ohio (living wise. Still prefer OSU)

Moose still doesn't understand yahoo
Business Insider wrote it
Yahoo just copied and pasted but gave credit to business Insider
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insider_Inc.
Most yahoo stories are copy and paste jobs but still giving credit.
Yahoo produces hardly any original content


Oh, I get it. I also get that you still don’t comprehend Yahoo=Fox News.

??????
Yahoo does not come close to equaling Fox news
That's a pretty weird thought
In this computer age and I still don't think you understand copy and paste
Fox is just one of many media outlets that Yahoo uses by copying and pasting

For the first time this cycle, bettors on PredictIt now think Dems will hold the Senate this year.

I think it’s hilarious our righties claimed Dobbs wouldn’t have any effect on this Nov’s elections. Thank you 6-3 sham court!



*as always, I take betting markets with a huge grain of salt. But this is an interesting data point.

The Dems holding the Senate will be important, but it becomes more important if Republicans somehow win the Presidency in 2024.

But, the Republicans are doing a great job shooting themselves in the foot, even a few months ago I thought that the Senate would easily go Red this fall.

I think the big push should be to get 60 Dems in the Senate, this can be accelerated by making Guam, Puerto Rico, and DC States.

Inflation Reduction act passes Senate 51-50, with VP Harris breaking the tie.

I still think it’s funny the joke from earlier this year that they should just pick stuff out of BBB that Manchin approves of and call it the “Inflation Reduction Act” actually became reality.
