Nothing exceptionally new or insightful in this article, but I thought it was a really thorough and accurate summary of where this race (and the Senate landscape overall) currently stands:

Uhhhhh, not sure "send me to Washington so I don't have to work as hard" is a winning message to come out of the gate with.

Obviously the race will still be competitive, and Hassan could certainly go down if the GOP gets a decent recruit and the national environment remains unfavorable. But let's be very, very clear: this is fantastic news for the Democrats, this drastically increases Hassan's chances of reelection, and McConnell/Scott are likely furious. Any blue avatars trying to downplay any of that need to be treated for a severe addiction to copium.

Sununu was clear-eyed about what being a Senator is all about.

This is interesting and the candor is appreciated, but he's going to look like a total hypocrite when he then just goes ahead and endorses whoever the GOP nominee is (seeing that this person will be involved in the obstruction he claims to disapprove of)
