Purely pathetic that the GOP can’t hold a seat like this in a strong election year.

I think that's an illusion we've been chasing for some time, that this was going to be some kind of "wave" year for the GOP. I've been predicting a +4 net gain for the GOP in November.. that, of course, excluding any turnovers in favor of the dems.

I’m worried about MS too. The GOP-E is lawless scum there, and it’s never a good thing when it comes down to a judge deciding whether lawless scum can always get away with it. Judges know who butters their bread...

“I think that’s an illusion we’ve been chasing for some time, that this was going to be some kind of “wave” year for the GOP.”

I think they actively worked to PREVENT a wave, by nominating, across the country, the least exciting candidates possible. Milquetoast across the board.

I do think there will be a wave in downballot races, similar to 2010, when we captured some 700 legislative seats, 19 legislative chambers and 10 governorships.

This is where the real leadership will bubble up from. Note that the Establishment rarely chooses state legislators to run for the US Senate (who would have the experience). Instead, they LOVE former Bush Administration officials.
