Even if the Republicans win all their seats that are up for grabs and all the seats that are considered up for grabs they would win less then 50% of the open seats.

The msm media will be slobbering over the Democratic victories, even as the Republicans gain seats in the Senate. Then once it's over they will be crying about how the Dems couldn't win the Senate back.

Here's hoping the Senate goes 56-44 Republicans and Chucky loses his lockstep minority.
I agree that the odds are stacked against the Dems here. What's interesting to me is the slant Mitch and his cohorts are going to put out there to their base. Even if no Dems mentioned impeachment whatsoever, I fully expect the right to run on "if you don't vote, the Dems will move forward with impeachment." Combine that with having Trump in office and digging in the more we lefties complain and I fully expect the Dems to lose ground.
