US-SEN 2020: Which seats should Democrats go after?

[Blair]

This just makes me realize how poor the map is for 2020, for the democrats. Although I suppose the GOP would have thought the same looking at 2016, and the reality now seems to be that the national mood can pull up very very strange results.

Okay come on guys Mitch McConnell isn't Jack Kennedy

Jack Kennedy never faced the competition McConnell did.

Henry Cabot Lodge would disagree.

and? If you think about it JFK won 2 competitive races in his entire career.

But you were wrong to claim that JFK never faced the competition that Mitch did; won a senate seat against the most famous family in Massachusetts, in a year when Eisenhower carried the state, then won the nomination of the party despite facing the previous nominee and the Senate Majority Leader at the convention, and then beat the sitting Vice-President during a relatively peace and prosperous time.

My entire point is that yes Mitch is a good campaigner, and has come back from bad odds but he's not the best political campaigner in the last 100 years as some people are claiming.
