2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWant to help hold a Democratically-controlled Senate seat?
Tammy Baldwin can beat Tommy Thompson and keep the seat that's now held by retiring Herb Kohl.
She absolutely can win. You can help her.

Take a look at the gains Tammy has made in the last month!!!

(62,325 posts)Or maybe Romney's disastrous performances over the past several weeks. Other down ticket races are looking promising also.
Even in my district, a long held Republican Congressional seat now looks like it might be winnable by the Democrat who now has a slim lead over Teabagger Strickland.
It's beginning to look like Dems can hold onto the Senate, and maybe even take back the house.
Let's hope Romney keeps talking as it seems to be helping the Congressional races so far.

(6,994 posts)the majority of voters will vote a straight ticket..So by Obama leading (so far) in Wisc. is a good sign....
We also have a chance to pick up a Senate seat in Indiana even though its a red state..But the Republican is a Teabagger and so far Joe Donnelly (D) is leading Mourdock, a radical Republican Tea Party backed.

(62,325 posts)we can begin to turn this country around. I would love to see Dems take back Congress.
Probably true about voting a straight ticket. Not to mention that the country got to see how little Republicans cared about people over the few years they held the House. People have to be asking 'what did they do'? Remember Boehner promising jobs? And all they did once they won to prevent anything that might have created jobs, and they sure never put forward any jobs bill.

(62,325 posts)So every seat counts. But looking at Rasmussen's chart, it is possible for Dems to hold the Senate. Whatever the reason, I am really glad to see her with a lead like this and hope it holds until Nov.

(12,041 posts)Tammy is a true progressive, she would be standing right beside Bernie Sanders as one of DUers favorite senators guaranteed. She is the best Senate candidate in the nation right now, she is every bit as good as Elizabeth Warren on domestic issues and when it comes to foreign policy she is far better than Warren. I really want to see her win.
