11. Reaching 51 seats is the most effective way to stop 45's destruction of our country.

I am optimistic about all of our incumbents except Heitkamp. I think Rosen and Sinema both have great chances to flip seats. That puts us at 50 if we lose ND. We just need one of MS/TN/TX. Hopefully we can win at least one of those to give us 51.
