Question in my mind is which party closes strongly in the last 3-1/2 weeks of the campaign. What do we have remaining in the tank, our ground game, or can Trump motivate his MAGA male base. I like our chances. If we close with a fury, the GOP could be destroyed. I mean it's 1936 all over again.

Imagine if California or New York had a senate seat “lean Democratic.” It would be a five alarm fire for Democrats.

If I was GOP, I’d be very concerned.

If you were a Republican you’d be just as bad as the rest of them!
