Best and worst winning/losing Senate campaigns this cycle?

[Pink Panther]

Best Winning Campaign - Mark Kelly
You definitely can make an argument for Warnock(he's probably winning the runoff, let's be real here), Fetterman, and Masto, but I decided to pick Kelly. He was able to simultaneously portray himself as a Centrist who criticized Biden at times, especially on the Border, while embracing his party label and turning out the base. Along with his background and his opponent essentially being Skeletor with hair(along with GOP funding being inconsistent), he was able to win by 5%, considerably overpreforming Biden and Hobbs in the process.

Best Losing Campaign - Tim Ryan
We don't really have anyone better, so I'm going with Ryan. He campaigned on populist, kitchen table issues for the most part, and didn't really have that many major flaws. Yeah, Vance ran a bad campaign as well, but considering the right wing lurch of OH in recent years, as well as directing vital GOP funding over here and helping Dem House candidates, I'd say it was as successful as it could be. Ryan doing worse in Mahoning than Biden is a little bit embarrassing, however.

Worst Winning Campaign - John Hoeven
This may come as a shock, especially when both Schumer, Grassley, and Vance are options, but let me explain. With the exception of his first statewide race in 2000, Hoeven had cracked 70%, or atleast come close to it. This year, he only cracked 57%. Not only is that worse than Trump, that isn't much better than Cramer's vote share four years ago. From my understanding, Hoeven barely campaigned and there was a strong Independent challenge, but this race shouldn't have been as close as it was.

Worst Losing Campaign - Mehmet Oz
There are so many options I can pick from, but I have to go with the Doctor in on this one. He came off as an unlikable sleezeball who failed to counteract Fetterman's attacks reinforcing that image. Oz also seemed like an uncompassionate dick(which he is) who seemed like he could coast his way to a Senate seat. As a result, Oz underperformed Trump with the exception of three, barely, in every single county in Pennsylvania. Note that this was also against a guy who isn't that charismatic, could be a portrayed as a political opportunist and slouch, and oh yeah, a recovering stroke victim. Dem victories in key swing seats in the House could so probably be somewhat attributed to Oz's terrible performance all around.
