We just need 50. I checked with court guru Zen Master. Pence CAN break a tie and has ALREADY broken a tie on an appellate judicial nominee.

We can lose Collins, MurCowSki, and Mionion.

BTW, the fact that Gardner probably has no chance now frees him up to vote for the nominee; and the fact that McSally is in a tight race works to her advantage with hesitant Rs. Now every R in AZ will come out, and we have a 100,000 lead.

This may cost Collins her seat, though. She already lost “independents” with her Judge K vote, but now she’ll lose Rs as well. Tillis will be strengthened.

Senate should be 52-48 or at worst 51-49 after the election (we’ll gain AL, possibly MI).

I think Mitt will read the tea leaves from his consituents, apparently his approvals in Utah are dropping like a rock, so he needs to do something to get them back up.

Sounds hopeful...
