Urban rallies in big venues are fun and all, but it's those small venues that can really reap some dividends. I hope you're right about Fetterman, and I hope Shapiro prevails as well.

I'm encouraged in Oregon, as the unaffiliate candidate Betsy Johnson drops (no surprise), a lot of her former support is going to the Democrat, Tina Kotek. We might prevail in a race that looked like the Republican candidate's to lose. Fingers crossed.
