1. I'm worried about Florida

Nelson needs a real Democratic turnout to beat Scott, I'm afraid.

2. Who does the recent shootings in Jacksonville, FL help or hurt?

Nelson-D wins if Democrats win the FL Governors Race.

9. I don't know that it will have that much effect

I'd like to think it helps Nelson, but I doubt it will make much difference overall.

3. Montana

Gov. Bullock term limits-out, best bet. Schweitzer's a coal/oil/mining shill.

4. Bullock's a better bet (IMO)

Schweitzer chose not to run last time. I think his chance passed him by

5. He became a lobbyist for extractive industries...

his days in public sector are over.

[rpannier]

7. That would do it

Thanks for the info
I wasn't sure what became of him

11. Bullock has been on a

"listening tour" recently in Iowa and NH this month. He is thinking about his next gig which speculation indicates a run for the WH in 2020. He's a real Democrat, has done a lot for the people* of our state in spite of the idiots in the legislature, has the right stuff, was AG for Schweitzer. I'd vote for him, he's a progressive as far as I can tell..

*including the vast Native American population in our state.

6. Good list

I am going to asterisk 2 to add
* Tennessee. I've read in a few places that Alexander may retire. So who knows.
* West Virginia: Only because the Capitos are such shady people, you never know what will happen

While Nebraska will more than likely go Republikkan, Sasse may not be their nominee

8. Who replaces Alexander-TN when he retires?

There are no electable Democrats in TN other than Bredesen who is going to get elected to the other TN US Senate seat.
Capito-WV is vulnerable against Ojeda-D or Tomblin-D

10. Isn't there an election this year, 2018?

Isn't 2020 two years in the future? Shouldn't we be more concerned with this year? Am I missing something here?
