Let’s face it — we’re being given a Satanic choice.
There are a few things that are quite-clear about this political season.
First, the Senate is odds-on to flip Democrat, like it or not. In fact it would be miraculous if it does not. This isn’t a function of who’s got the better candidates, it’s a math problem. Toss-up states are all incumbent Republican or vacant seats; this by definition is a crappy situation that has nearly no chance of working out well for Team Red.
The odds of flipping The House red are long. In fact, insurmountably so, by my math; the margin is just too large.
And then you have the top of the ticket.
