If he doesn't get his act together soon Stacy Abrams and those Biden voters are going to burn his ass and elect two Dems to the Senate. They may anyway and then there would be a 50-50 split (assuming Peters and Kelly hang on) with Kamala Harris breaking the tie. I have to believe that the disappointed Trump voters in Georgia are not going to be terribly motivated to save McConnell's majority. I am damn glad we have Stacy Abrams on our side. I am not sure she should join the Biden administration. I think we need to keep her in Georgia and maybe send her to Florida and NC to help the Dems in those states to get their act together. Biden should have won Florida and NC.
