Danforth is probably his best pick. He can help reclaim the south and keep an ideological balance on the ticket.

Gore should write off Gephardt. Graham is probably his best bet in this scenario.

It would be very cool if Washington went for McCain

Simpson and McCain will probably allow the Democratic Party to remain competitive in the south and the republicans to remain competitive in New England and the northwest for longer

I hope McCain will be able to stop 9/11 but he might just do the same thing as Bush as he has the same foreign policy team basically.

Mary Donohue declined to seek the governorship in 2006 so I expect she won’t seek a full term in 2002.

Graham and Quinn’s seats are probably safe R for the special elections.

Siegelman running is very interesting... if he did win the nomination, the 2004 election would likely be a reversal of the trends we saw irl in 2004.

I mean, of these candidates, Feingold is the best choice to me but I wouldn't really want him to be the nominee as he'd likely get clobbered by McCain and I think he wouldn't be able to run for re-election to the senate at the same time.

Interesting how both of the final candidates are people who considered themselves close friends of McCain. This probably means the election will be significantly more civil than irl 2004.

The senate definitely doesn’t look too great for Dems, going into 2006, even if they win all the seats they did IOTL, that’s still a 50/50 split if my math is correct, so they’d probably have to pick up the seat in Tennessee as well, possible but definitely a tall order considering McCain is more popular than Bush.

The senate definitely doesn’t look too great for Dems, going into 2006, even if they flip all the seats they did IOTL, that’s still a 50/50 split, so they’d probably have to pick up the seat in Tennessee as well, possible but definitely a tall order considering McCain is more popular than Bush.
Actually, its a 51-49 R split if the 2006 Senate elections in this timeline are the same as irl.
Jim Jeffords didn’t switch here though iirc, so if Sanders wins that seat it’s a flip, unless there’s another discrepancy I’m missing.
