Surprised about how close SC was (considering Archie Parnell was basically ignored compared to Ossoff). If Dems had put in just a bit more effort there and Kansas it would have been a winnable race. The two where they did put in effort, well it didn't turn out well.
No. Paradoxically, nationalizing the South Carolina race would have ultimately mobilized Republicans, not Democrats, to vote tonight. Democrats turned out in SC-05. Republicans largely stayed home. As I said a few times in the Montana thread, national Democrats are probably better off staying out of the race (or at least remain deep behind the scenes) in Republican-favorable districts like MT-AL and SC-05.
