Heā€™s gonna get his judge. Thatā€™s just about all he cares about.

Also, 538 has his chances of keeping his seat at 96 in 100, and so Iā€™m not too much of a downer, they only give him a 39 in 100 chance of staying majority leader.

And that, my friend, is the only hope we have of neutralizing this awful person. Iā€™ll take it.

Texas is a swing state. Thatā€™s the headline.

Mcconnell is one of the vilest humans ever to walk the earth. Total sociopath.

I wonder if Silver takes the votes already cast into account. The Democrats are taking a lot of votes off the table. That makes the hill for Trump even harder. Also I have read Trump is out of money and is using Air Force One to gin up a lot of free media in swing states where he has gone dark.

The biggest problem we are having in Kentucky is the Party has decided that Amy canā€™t win so they arenā€™t funding her much. It is hard to do well when you arenā€™t on the air.

Thought the same thing. Texas has never been a swing state in my lifetime.

Iā€™m confident should the Dems win the Senate theyā€™ll stumble upon a way to maintain McConnell as the de facto leader of the body. Given the opportunity they surrender the wielding of ruthless political power to real men. Doing otherwise might get dirt under their fingernails.

Yeah well if we expand the court it was all. for. nothing.

Continuation of a theme I mentioned upthread.

Had a chat with an uncle and we talked about the 1950s and 1960s (me, the 60s and him the 50s).

Overcoming obstacles was the object of the exercise. I was so proud of those who risked their well-being to stand in line to vote, and I will never provide a heaping helping of pessimism as a response.

Neither King nor Lewis had a PR man who whispered in their ears that they would become ā€œiconsā€, nor did my uncle expect a damn thing for his efforts, sometimes.

Aww, poor Turtleface needs a vacation.

Well, thereā€™ll be plenty of time off once youā€™re no longer the Senate Majority Leader, Mitch.

Congrats on screwing over all your vulnerable Senate candidates by hitching your wagon to a certifiable lunatic and ramming through a confirmation with 70/30 against polling for a nominee who scares the crap out of suburban moms from coast to coast.

Sheā€™s on the air constantly here in Cincinnati. Maybe sheā€™s hoping to pull out a win with a really strong showing in northern Kentucky?

Thatā€™s my sense too. Heā€™s now so far down the black hole of his own power that itā€™s all he lives for.

If we take over the Senate, Iā€™d like him to be shown every conceivable discourtesy, including censure for his SCOTUS antics.

Every Dem in a close (or any) Senate race should send him a thank you note. Here in Oklahoma it seems that the worst crime a person can commit is to be allied with Nancy Pelosi. I canā€™t imagine that anyone anywhere can look at Mitch McConnell and say ā€œyes, that guy cares about people like meā€.

That was before we learned that corporations are people. We need a new term to describe Republicans.
