      So this week has really driven home just how much control of the Senate next year matters. Democrats could hold up Kavanaugh's nomination forever if they win control this November. /1

      IF Dems win the Senate. I just finished ranking the top 10 most competitive races 6.5 weeks out from Election Day. Democrats have to have a near-perfect sweep of those to grab the majority for the first time since 2014. /2

      Of our 10 most competitive races, three are Republican-held, while Democrats need to defend nearly all of the other seven seats to net the two that would help them get a slim Senate majority. /3 (out of 4, I promise)

      Some crucial details are trending Democrats' way: Tennessee is competitive, while races to unseat Dems in Michigan, Ohio & Pennsylvania aren't really on the radar anymore. Also, maybe Texas? Anyway, those rankings will be out in a few minutes. I'll share them here.

      And here are the rankings. Joe Manchin in W Va. keeps getting more secure in his reelection, while Heidi Heitkamp in ND is the most vulnerable Senate Dem right now. She's a very close second to GOP Sen. Dean Heller in NV for most likely to lose.https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/09/21/most-competitive-senate-races-democrats-still-have-path/ …

          Dean deserves to lose after throwing his principles away for a ride on the Trump trainwreck.

          Joe Manchin is not going to win, the biased polls in West Virginia are not worth mentioning. Look what was predicted last election versus what actually happened.pic.twitter.com/i5SL9GOEA7

          Manchin is a Dino. I have no idea why he hasn't switched parties. ND is an interesting race but looks to be trending blue.

          See this is crap why so many Americans are becoming non partisan. The name calling. If you want to win majoritiesrespect the states from where your party candidates reside. Not all are the same. Further, if Dems win the house and senate after this shyt show-it’s borrowed power.

          Independents can and WILL vote for the other should both parties choose to push for extremism and not a balanced center right and left legislative branch to check the executive. Our loyalty is to the country-not a wanna be parliamentary and that’s how democrats &GOP sound.
