Sherrod Brown's would probably flip red. Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, and Kirsten Gillibrand's seats are likely to stay blue.

the White House is ours. But we're a year away from the first primaries. The House seems safe but lets face it we squeeked in on a lot of our offices. Don't we really need to to work on those rather than get invested in nasty partisan squabbling with 20+candidates a year before the first primary - the straw vote in Iowa?

We need a candidate who is not only going to win the White House that any of us can vote for and even though its Presidential election year, electrify enough of those cynical and occasional voters out to vote.

It just also seems that the energy and money and resources are being divided among so many people that might be better put to fewer candidates.

And most of them are incumbent senators. He's a good guy, but he'd have difficulty standing out.

Guess I'll be supporting Governor Inslee, as I'm not overly impressed with most of the Senators running.
