We have to do this in ever state, every single one. We could win some states we didn't anticipate with the orange wonder having a complete meltdown. If we get the Senate, and we have a strong leader in the Senate we can strong arm them the way they have done us. If we do what we did in 2016 we could lose everything. I don't see it happening this time, but it worries me with everyone getting giddy about polls.

I am not trying to be a wet blanket, but after seeing 2016 I was so angry with people who said "but she was supposed to win big I didn't think I needed to stand in line" I wanted to hurl. We have to be vigilant this time.

The party isn't spending a ton of money there because Amy has a lot of money already. I think it is like a 6 point spread. I don't pay attention to polls much except what I see here.

as we were in 2016. I think everyone’s fired up to vote even if the polls show Biden winning by 30 points with all 50 states in the bag. We’re all ready to boot Trump out of office.

But it seems likely that Democrats will take the Senate, so maybe Mitchie won't control the Senate in 2021.
