Rush is saying Dems know they can't beat Trump and are eyeing the Senate.

He said they are looking for enough Jeff Flake types to piss off their constituents and then take the Senate.

Good luck with that. They’re not taking the Senate.

Does a full vote have to be taken once there are 34 NO's?

You know, one of the Auburn posters on here told me this last week. I have been pondering it since.

In which case it would be advantageous to give a couple leeway to do what they need to do, if it comes to that. But of course not before having the exact vote count down pat and solid. Couple, or three if necessary.

Makes complete sense...they are targeting Collins, Murkowski, Gardner and McSally.
They flip those four and maintain the rest it’s 51-49 in the Senate plus RINO Romney. It’s the only chance they have.

They have a better chance of taking the senate than defeating Trump.
If they do, and I believe they will hold the House, then 2021 is going to be insanity running wild.

Agree, and if it's the Dems that hold but get the margin slashed like that, it should wake all the others up to their Congressional mortality. They'd be a touch more inclined to play some ball at least.

we lose no more than 3 seats, all the way down to zero
one or 2 is likely
we will pick up Alabama for sure, so the worst I can see is us still holding a slim Senate majority
the House? May be an uphill battle, but we could certainly take it back, we will narrow the gap at a minimum

I am paranoid too.
Voter fraud is a valid concern. You libs are lunatics and have no qualms cheating, even murdering to acquire and maintain power.
