Kander or Ross, went with Kander because of his ad.

For now, Kander.

Heck is a close second though.

Portman, but his campaign was so good it got him off this list

More like Strickland really blew it.

Kander. Running even with an incumbent in an increasingly Atlas Blue state is no small feat, and if he wins it's on his merits alone, not because he was dragged over the finish line by Clinton.

I remember when Strickland was talked up as one of the Golden Recruits (along with Hassan, Murphy etc)

Portman has ran a brilliant campaign

Kander. Portman's run a pretty good campaign, but he was going to win either way.

Among races no longer competitive? Obviously Portman

Among races made competitive? Obviously Kander, but Ross gets a good second.

Todd Young or Jason Kander. Both turned supposedly safe races into tissues. Ross got lucky in that Burr has been lackluster and Trump tanked among college GOP voters.

This. It should be noted that this goes for Bennet too, and he managed to get off the list much earlier.

Voted Rubio because I think it's a tad ridiculous that he has no votes at all (certainly he's ran a stronger campaign than Heck or Young, though he has the advantage of incumbency), but I certainly see the argument for Kander. Kander ran far and away the best non-incumbent campaign.

As for Bennet, he is safe because Glenn is as bad of an opponent as, say, Richard Mourdock. When Glenn won the primary, the NRSC basically conceded the race.

I voted Ron Johnson because he has gone from double digits deficit to making it a tight race in the span of a month or so

It seems weird to not include Kirk or Duckworth, even though the answer obviously isn't either of them.
