WASHINGTON This week the 2020 Senate landscape grew a bit more interesting as Georgias Johnny Isakson announced he was resigning at the end of the year. That put another Republican-held seat on the battleground list the second one in Georgia and added more evidence that control for the upper chamber of Congress is very much in play.
The Senate campaign map that is coming into view is looking more and more like a "good news," but not "great news" situation for Democrats. The party needs to net only four seats to get to a 51-49 majority in the Senate and the list of seats that Republicans need to defend is growing but there are not a lot of easy marks.
In essence, the Democrats' path to recapturing the Senate seems to be growing clearer, but its not necessarily growing easier.

Here's hoping Manchin stays in the Senate!! And Warren too. We'll need her seat too!! (remember, MA has an R Gov.)

Of course, I'd also like to take AZ, CO, and ME along with KY -- and the two GA seats would be the gravy!! (hey, a guy can dream.....)
