I'm actually not going to try and summarize this last one. There are too many independent points to be made without running afoul of fair use policy. However I would recommend skimming it at least!

Interesting. I mean, some of us have been saying for months about how the midterms won't be about how liberal or obstructionist a Democratic Senator has been, but oh well! I'd rather be the party that is crushing it among intensity and independents, but that's just me.

Ironically, making the 2018 elections about local issues is exactly what Republicans want. They don't want to talk about Trump and his endless scandals, or the failed healthcare bill no one but GOP donors/activists wanted. They know that if the election becomes a referendum on the national party and Trump, they will lose. It was the same for Democrats in 2010 and 2014, and Republicans in 2006.
