...but damn, seeing some of the drama threads here tonight, think I just may take it up.
Chilax everyone, the possibility of us taking the Senate was slim to none. In fact, the GOP was openly boasting two years ago that the next mid-term would increase their majority as the map favored them. I'll call keeping the status quo a win.
Its all about the House. And from the House we can begin the investigations and put serious pressure on the Senate.
And yes, I get it, the Senate confirms the Judges....pretty sure we were screwed on that avenue the day Dump "won". Reminds me of a point in history when the Federalist John Adams appointed a bunch of judges before Jefferson took over.

We've already flipped a few house seats that were considered safe and retained Senate seats where the GOP thought they may have a shot.
To use an analogy, this was never King Theoden charging on the Pelennor Field. This is Theoden defending Helms Deep and then turning the tables.
