And that's really the bottom line for my sources.

Even my Democratic sources, none of them said, oh, we got this.

We're going to be the majority.

It's just a question of where we get.

And the reality is,

at this point given the given the complexity of democrats pulling this off i actually think it might be true not saying it is true it might be true that democrats have a republicans have a better chance of increasing their majority

than Democrats have of winning the majority.

Might be true.

We'll see how things develop.

But that just shows you what an uphill battle this is.

It's easy to blithely say, oh, yeah, Republicans are going to lose the majority.

You got to get to plus four.

You got to get to plus four for the Democrats.

And honestly, I don't see it today.

Now, Democrats could win them all.

They could hold their three.

And in all honesty, if it's a huge Democratic year and things break right for them,

They could win eight Senate seats.

I really can't rule out that they could win net eight Senate seats.

They could.
