It's a little scary in that it seemed strange to me how long the networks held up the Georgia call in 2016. Trump won it fairly easily yet it was called very late (and very quietly) in the night.

All the people we've been trusting on this board though say not to worry about GA.

Also - if GA somehow did flip b/c of unprecedented older AA turnout it still wouldn't be a deathknell so long as Trump wins 2 out of the Upper Midwest 4 (PA, MI, WI, MN).

It really doesn't make sense though - we took and survived their best shot with an AA woman heading up their ticket in a strong blue election with no Trump on the ballot in 2018 and survived. I can't imagine losing with Trump at the top of the ticket.

Also we fended off a challenge in 2016/17 with a bad candidate (Handel) over a good candidate (Ossoff) in the immediate aftermath of the REEEEEEEEsist rage right in the EXACT area of suburban women that we were supposed to get slaughtered with.

I remember this one. ABC (or MNSBC) kept saying "too close to call" despite Trump being well ahead by double digits.
