"Senator Dinniman, Rep. Van Hollen is on line one..."
Well, I'd hate to give up a Senate seat which would lean GOP, BUT we have little shot of taking the PA Senate anyway so I think Mr. Van Hollen will call him.
I think the Democrats best hope of eventually taking the PA Senate is to hope that the Collar Counties around Philadelphia become less Republican on the local level...which is happening, but only very slowly.
So I should expect a headline like this: "Democrats sweep 2038 midterms; PA Dems within one seat in State Senate."
