Keep working toward November


The following is excerpted from the Washington Post's Plum Line column, penned by Greg Sargent.  It was published on May 3, 2018:


GOP PANICS ABOUT SENATE SEAT:

     "With Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee refusing to give a full-throated endorsement to GOP candidate Marsha Blackburn while praising Dem Phil Bredesen, Politico reports that Republicans are in panic mode:
The drama between Blackburn and Corker, combined with Bredesen’s crossover appeal, hint at a potential train wreck … that could swing the narrowly divided Senate to Democrats. Recent public and private polls show Bredesen leading Blackburn … Republicans … worry that Corker’s Bredesen-friendly comments amount to a tacit permission for pragmatic-minded GOP voters to cross the aisle."
    As we keep pointing out, if Dems can win the Tennessee seat, the path to a Dem majority (via Nevada and/or Arizona) becomes a lot more plausible."


The goal is in sight. It's time to keep working (and also time to support Dem candidates around the country.
