the dems have been finished for a while, bro. nate silver says the GOP has a 65.7% chance of taking the senate, way up from the 52% they were at in early/mid-september.

since then, the dems have botched a bunch of critical races and have generally been incompetent as fuck.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz is perhaps the worst "political strategist" on the dem side since donna brazile.

CR. Really since Clinton everyone other than Dean has underperformed and Dean just got lucky with his timing as DNC chair. His strategy would've been idiotic in 2002.

nate ran the numbers again for today; GOP up to 65.9%. LOL @ dems actually continuing to LOSE ground. that means they aren't even adapting tactically and keeping things close. they're just getting outplayed and blown out.

in terms of impact on the country, everything stays the same except for one big thing: "owning" congress will sink their 2016 chances for POTUS (and they're defending way more senate seats in 2016 than the dems will be).

I dont see how this hurts GOP for 2016. Dems once again are the "loser" party. Have to stop looking at huge defeats as some sort of long term strategic victory.

americans don't get the idea of a bicameral legislature, but probably about 2/3 of them at least know we have a congress. the narrative dems push w/r/t a do nothing republican congress will have to be a lot less nuanced in 2016, when more dem voters tend to show up anyway.

They'll probably lose in 2016 but not because they took over Congress. It will be a do-nothing Congress as it has been for 4 years now. GOP favorability is already in the tank and really can't go much lower.

Georgia is a runoff if no one gets 50%. Nunn may win a plurality but no way she gets a majority and she will be pwned in a runoff. GA is about a 95% Republican lock eventually... though it may take until December.

They'll get closer to 54 seats. It really doesn't make a difference for major legislation unless you have 57 or so seats and the presidency. With 57+, you might be able to turn the screws on a couple of senators.

Unless there is a dramatic change, yes. This story is going to be a true bellwether of the media. At this point, the only two reasons the MSM would report that the Dems have a realistic chance of maintaining control of the Senate is delusion or an intentional effort to help voter turnout for Dems.

even obama has given up. he's not really campaigning even in a background/fundraising role, which indicates he thinks the dems are finished, and it would be a wasted effort.
