Let's not lose perspective on a few things - namely we're going to have a woman vice president.

[Drunken Irishman]

Joe Biden is going to get a fairly decisive victory when it's all said and done. He will have potentially flipped two once very reliable Republican states and he'll have defeated the first incumbent president in 30 years.

Don't let the narrative set in that we failed to make progress or that this is not an ideal state.

Donald Trump will no longer be president.

William Barr will no longer be overseeing the DOJ.

Don Jr and the Trump brood will no longer have any level of sway in our national government.

Yes, Joe is going to have a fight ahead of him but this was a gigantic step toward preserving the greatness of democracy.

We could not afford four more years of Trump.

This is a spectacular win and should be treated as such.

1. Indeed!

But we wouldn’t be Democrats if we allowed ourselves to be happy!

[EarlG]

2. 100%

[drray23]

3. I completely agree.

We also wont have to worry about more supreme court appointments, breaking treaties with our allies or having the doj used against political opponents.

[soothsayer]

4. Yes!

[Laelth]

5. I seriously need a Democratic Senate.

The whole country does, and we need it now. It’s hard not to be a little disappointed.

8. A little disappointed is fine. But we should be happy too.

[Harker]

6. Not just any woman...

a capable, intelligent, admirable one!

All good points to take to heart.

7. You're convinced we got this?

Not trying to sound negative but it still seems like the dust is settling. I suppose if Joe holds onto NV, MI, and WI, which he should, he's got it no matter how what happens in PA, GA, or NC. So much info to absorb. Obviously, I still really want PA and GA--NC seems unlikely.

[Drunken Irishman]

9. Yes. Biden will win.

[MakeTXBlue2020]

10. This hasn't been ideal but in the end that's the most important thing!

[USALiberal]

12. Which states will he get? n

[Drunken Irishman]

14. MI+WI+PA and possibly Georgia.

[USALiberal]

15. OK,thanks! nt

11. As A Woman

I could not care less. I want at least the Senate so we can get stuff done and preferably the Senate and the Presidency. The gender or color of their skin has no bearing on what gets accomplished.

And there is no win at this point, there might be a win or a loss.

[Drunken Irishman]

13. Biden will win.
