If McCaskill wins, she will have to defeat a very strong candidate, in Josh Hawley. He is probably one of the strongest Republicans running, regardless of state. Missouri could be a bellweather? If McCaskill wins, it would probably be a good night for Democrats across the nation?

Not only is Hawley a strong opponent, but Hillary only managed 38% in Missouri. Compare to more than 43% in Texas, for example.

If McCaskill wins this one, difficult to see other pivotal senate races toppling against us.

This can be viewed as an excellent reference point
