The Democratic base is now a very engaged base and with Trump no longer around his supporters and rural surge may not matter as much for the 2022 midterms.

Nah, they'll turn out. The Senate GOP will neuter any attempt at economic stimulus and Biden and the Democrats will get the blame for it.

STOP MOANING! Lets win the georgia run offs!!

I remember how engaged Dems were in 2008 too, until they weren't two years later.
haha has anything in politics not been counterintuitive?

Democrats overperformed the dynamics in 2018 in a year in which no wave conditions exists and underperformed this year.

Will those highly educated suburban voters stick with Dems without Trump in the White House?  Virginia will answer that this November.

Those "highly educated suburban voters" in VA were considerably more Democratic than other "highly educated suburban voters" in other (actually competitive or traditionally R) states even before Trump, so no, it won’t.

Didn’t the voters that you are referring to vote for Biden but generally vote Republican downballot even in 2020 (except for maybe Mark Kelly and Abigail Spanberger)? 

I mean those highly educated voters in VA voted quite Democratic down ballot for a while now. Even in 2014, Mark Warner apparently won Mclean, Virginia.
