Easy Solution for Manchin - The 10 Senate seats most likely to flip in 2022

[TomCADem]

The simple solution to Joe Manchin not going along with a progressive agenda is to win more Senate seats so we are not depending on a Senator from red coal mining State to find his inner green peace. Indeed, all the focus on Manchin only operates to give Republicans from more competitive states a free pass as they vote against Biden's agenda, but then claim credit for the benefits at home.

(CNN)As the calendar turns to 2022, Senate races are about to kick into much higher gear, with ad spending increasing ahead of the first primaries in May and just a few more fundraising quarters for candidates to prove they're serious.

The biggest storyline to watch heading into 2022 is the resolution of contested GOP primaries. In at least six of the 10 states on this list, Republicans are facing unsettled fields -- some more problematic for the party than others -- that may go a long way toward shaping their ability to harness a favorable political environment.

Developments in these states over the past month have been mixed for the GOP. Some Republicans feel like they dodged a bullet in Pennsylvania, where the candidate backed by former President Donald Trump dropped out. But in New Hampshire, they're disappointed the governor isn't running for Senate. The power of the ex-President's endorsement is still an open question in some places, but as Republicans across the country scramble for his blessing, primaries look very much like the Trump loyalty contests of 2018 and 2020 -- except with the added (and increasingly dangerous) litmus test of election denialism. Candidates are repeating various versions of Trump's lies about fraud in the 2020 election to curry favor with the former commander in chief.

2. All I can do is vote for Mark Kelly and Greg Stanton

To hold on to their seats.

I have donated to Warnock and Charles Booker so that is about the best I can do for the midterms

3. We might pick up two seats, but we'll lose the House

So it won't do much good, except for confirming judges.
