I was not surprised Handel won

I was convinced over the weekend. All I was hearing over the weekend was "A tight race" & "too close to call". Democrats don't win tight races any more.

The polls need to be at least 8% in the Democrats favor for them to have a realistic chance of winning.

I just hope Mueller finds a bombshell or two in the next 16 months.

Ossoff ran a damned good race in a district that should have been completely hopeless. I hope we see more of him.

Republican strategists are not sleeping well tonight.

She beat Ayotte in 2016 by less than a thousand votes in NH.

I guess the difference is that was in a legitimate swing state, not some blood red congressional district in the middle of a rock solid GOP stronghold.
