Congrats to Senator Bennett...

Republicans dug their own grave here. Bennet was never going to be easy for them to take down, but they've done just about everything wrong that they could.

Yep...

I think Bennet may be the luckiest Senator currently in office. Has any other Senator had their winnable seat handed to them twice in a row by an incompetent state party?

The COGOP makes the FL Dems look like dominant titans.

It's worse than other races Republicans have thrown away; like Delaware 2010, Nevada 2010, Indiana 2012, Missouri 2012, ect. because those races had bad candidates beating solid recruits. Glenn finished first in a pack of losers.

Plus they threw it away twice in a row. Coons was safe after 2010 no matter what, they got a strong candidate in Nevada this time...it will only be comparable if they nominate yet another terrible/unelectable candidate in IN and/or MO in 2018.

McCaskill only got handed the seat once though. She had to fight hard for her win in 2006.

Plus, she was partially responsible for Akin winning the nomination. Bennet did nothing to obtain his awful opponents.
