WTF is wrong with Georgia, never should have been this close.
It's a red state so Warnock was never going to blow Walker away no matter how bad he was (it was because Walker was so bad that Warnock had any chance at all). You Dems should actually love Trump if it wasn't for him the GOP would likely have all three branches of Government (with some other Republican President on his 2d term right now).

Sinema makes it official, registered as an independent. Not surprising.

She is positioning as she comes into cycle and democrats already have knives out for her as they review others to primary against her. Independent thinker isn’t for the democrat party these days unfortunately

I think this will improve GOP chances by a lot. She is very popular among the independents in Arizona, but her only chance would be if the GOP nominates a MAGA candidate again as she would need to pull from both the GOP and Dems to have any shot at winning. As for the Dem I just don't see that they'll have any chance at all in 2024 with Sinema in the race. I guess the Dems could decide not to run anyone to try to prevent the GOP pick-up.

After further thought, I think what Sinema did was absolutely brilliant. She was going to be primaried and lose in the Dem race. Now she gives the Dems a choice of either supporting her independent run (ie not field a candidate) or give the seat to the GOP. It is still a long shot that she'd win (many Dems won't vote for her) but she has given herself a chance.

Not really, actually she has done the opposite. She can't be trusted by the voters. She wants to change her party fine go ahead by after you're out of Office, she was elected under false pretense.

All that you said is beside the point I was making. She was going to lose in the primaries, now the Dems have to make the decision to either support her or give the seat to the GOP. I'm not saying she will win. She will still be an underdog as she will lose some(many?) Dems in the general election anyway.

I think they have to run someone. It doesn’t matter if it is Sinema or a GOP it is a loss for dems regardless. Put someone yiu want to be a rising star knowing they have 6 years
