but at this moment in time I am not worried about Democrats voting for Biden. Most polls and surveys I've seen show Dems voting for their candidate in the 90-95% range. Somebody even posted a new one here (Monmouth, perhaps?) that had them at a whopping 96%. Quinnipiac came out with one early this month showing 93% of all Dems will vote for a D with another 3% of others not yet decided...

If things stay roughly as they appear to be (which obviously they may not) Biden's chances look real good to me. What DOES have me much more worried is this...

2020 U.S. Senate election odds: Will Democrats or Republicans get control in November?

Pubbies currently favored to hang onto the Senate by odds of 54.5% to the Dems 45.5%.

IMO, this old turtle-faced SOB is in some ways every bit as dangerous as his master. It would be too freaking cruel if Biden won the White House and the Dems kept the House and perhaps even increased the number of seats they have if the GOP ends up with 51 Senate seats and this rotten MFer was still the Majority Leader.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
