19. You've outlined my dilemma perfectly.

I think that we should all just let Secy Clinton surprise us all with her choice, praying that we won't lose the Senate in either 2016 or (horrors!) 2018 (when things look really bad for us) because she chose a sitting Democratic US Senator.

I really hope that Hillary thinks deeply and strategically about this.
