Regardless of how you feel about Schumer, in this case, you absolutely Gotta Hand it to Him.
Schumer-aligned Senate Majority PAC spent $2.2 million down the stretch in Mississippi, $750K in South Carolina and $14 million (!) in Kansas

The DSA had their fun, but the results are clear. Voters do not like your candidates. There is space in America for DSA politicians, but you need to find better faces or better candidates. Don't blame Dems for your failures!!!

If it means he's leaving Congress I'm all for it, because there's no way he gets past South Carolina, if he even makes it that far.

The big lesson of the Biden years is that you have to prosecute these people. You can’t just move on. You need to make the next generation of grifters and hate mongers scared for their lives.

If the title for "most impactful use of Chic's 'Good Times'" wasn't already locked in since 1979, this would take it with ease.

Why stop there? The Ossoff regime will split California into five blue states and combine the Dakotas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah and Idaho into a single state named "Flyover" (abbreviation: FY) per executive order, and the packed SCOTUS will allow it.
Not to overreact but... could DC and PR statehood legitimately be on the table in 2028?

Semafor: Annie Andrews knew she was winning in October — but kept the poll secret On Oct. 5, the Andrews campaign received a poll showing her with a 3-point lead over Graham. But the Democrat’s campaign decided against publicly releasing the poll — or any subsequent internal poll — showing Andrews with a lead over Graham, wary of drawing too much attention from national Republicans and jeopardizing a peak at the right time, according to Chas Goldman, a strategist for Andrews. semafor.com/article/11/04/20…

She's also a mega racist so this would be one of the sweetest victories of this cycle.
If she loses to Scott Colom, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith will have helped set her own defeat in motion. He'd likely be a federal judge right now—not her opponent—if not for the fact that she blocked Biden's nomination of him over his support for trans rights. mississippifreepress.org/sen…

Chick Schumer is excellent at both governing (passed a historic legislative agenda with a tied Senate) and candidate recruiting, but he's bad at saying the proper catch phrases and slogans to make online activists feel happy.
Nobody acquitted themselves Tuesday night better than Chuck Schumer. All of the extremely important parts of politics that he excels at are the parts that go largely unseen.

The 2028 Republican primary will be a fight between somewhat of a return to pre-Trump conservatism (Rubio) and white supremacy with antisemitic characteristics (Vance)
JD Vance cites the US’ relationship with Israel as the reason the Republicans lost the midterms.
