In 2018 if the Dems protect their seats, no small feat, and win NV and AZ which are definitely in play they can take the Senate even having an absolutely brutal map.

Candidate recruiting has already been going at an insane rate this year. Emily's List had 20k women sign up to run for something:

This win means people will run for everything because if you can win in AL then you can win everywhere. What was already going to be a blue wave is likely to give us some surprise wins now because previously unchallenged Rs will get forced to run and some will lose.

What are the odds that Roy Moore pops up again in the news? Past tomorrow or whenever. Because I'd be pretty cool with never hearing that name again.

Well I guess his name will pop up around election season because the Republicans actually backed him, but as some sort of actual candidate for anything at all.

The Dems can now retake the senate in 2018. That was once thought impossible and that taking the House was our only realistic goal.

We are now looking at a generational Blue wave. If everything holds true over the next 3 years the Dem who wins in 2020 might hope for 60 senate seats and a comparable proportion in the House.

I wonder how many people were shallow enough to vote against Moore because Bannon made fun of Joe Scarborough for going to Alabama.

e: Ha, yeah I just saw that Trump tweet and there's absolutely 0% chance he wrote it.

fair point


Also sooooo many people are eating up the RINO thing and blaming this on Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell and that means its time for a Bannonite to split the R vote with Paul and usher in the age of the

I feel like Ted Cruz is so disgusting we could find out he had a child farming operation and consumed nothing but the flesh of dead babies and it wouldn't make him any less popular or change the mind of anyone who votes for him.
