What is going on with him?  He's acting very differently.[/quote]
Manchin saw the writing on the wall: Dems are poised to pick up seats in the Senate, making him irrelevant. He’s taking his wins now.[/quote]
This. 
If the Dems end up with one or two more seats then Manchin and Sinema can go kick rocks.[/quote]

LOL you all are misreading this again - just like you thought Manchin would crack on that stupid trillion-dollar proposal.

He’s throwing desperate Dems in midterms a lifeline to run on while passing a bill HE co-authored, named and stuck in not only pipeline legislation for but also a Coal Miners pension provision that benefits only his state.

Manchin not only got his pork, he ate it too. [/quote]
I’m all for Manchin’s pork if it gets us Climate legislation and lower drug cost. But you can’t tell me this win will make him irrelevant because Dems will not only now hold the Senate, we’ll pick up a seat or two.

Next year we’ll close the carried interest loophole since even 1 pickup makes Sinema irrelevant too. [/quote]

I’m telling you exactly that. Say the Dems hold the Senate +1-2 (and that’s far from certain with Kelly on shaky grounds and your hope being Rubio or Rand Paul loses lol), the House is guaranteed to be in Republican hands. What exactly do you hope to pass with one chamber against the other?

It’s not Sinema and Manchin being irrelevant you should worry about, it’s the entire Senate.

Of course in blue hands we’ll still get our judicial nominees through so small blessings.[/quote]
Who’s counting on flipping FL or KY? Dems WILL pick up PA, they’ll hold AZ, and have a very good chance of ousting Ron Jonson. But we’ll see. A lot can happen between now and Nov.[/quote]

They’ll pick up PA as long as Fetterman doesn’t die in a hospital in the next 90 days…you still haven’t answered what legislation you expect Congress to pass with a GOP held House and a Dem held Senate?[/quote]
I didn't answer because I believe that Dems will hold the House. It's been a VERY good month for Biden and Democrats and a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad month for Trump & Trumpism. [/quote]

Tell us again how the Dems are going to win the midterms…

You still don't understand the difference between a primary and a general, do you. That's not a question.

Wyoming is safe red. Safe red seats can run more extreme candidates than swingier seats, and still get Rs elected. In a red wave year, more extreme candidates have a better shot at winning generals in swingier districts. That's the gamble that Rs are taking - running extreme candidates in swingy districts. The extreme candidates winning their primaries can be seen two ways: on the one hand, bad for Rs; on the other, that Rs feel so cocky about their chances that they are going to smear crap on toast and expect people to eat it. We'll see how it goes! It's not the gamble I would want to be making, if I were in charge, but I am not.[/quote]

Case in point, it is looking like the D may pull off an upset against Palin in the Alaska special.  Still very close, but this is a district that the Ra should have in the bag.  You run crazy people and things like this can happen.[/quote]
