Related: About this forumIf we don't get the Senate, and the republicans behave like the sexist cretins they are

I still think we can capture the Senate though in spite of Comey's interference. Here are the seats that are going:
Ilinois
Wisconsin
Pennsylvania
New Hampshire
Missouri
North Carolina
Indiana
Nevada
Florida
Arizonia
Ohio

majority to set the agenda, but if we get over 50 I will be thrilled
I think we can do it.
In addition, I think the Comey announcement will take longer to filter into the Senate polls than the polls for the White House, and we won't know until Tuesday what effect it has
