    Correct. And yet, that's what we all said about Georgia...until it happened.

    I wrote about Mississippi a couple of years ago during their governor's race. It's more competitive than people imagine---the problem is that while it isn't that hard for a Dem to get into the high 40s, getting to 50+1 is really challenging archive.ph/5A0cP

    👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I feel so, so strongly that if there was ever a year to spread our bets around this is it. The 51st seat will likely be one of IA/TX/AK BUT places like KS/NE/MS have strong candidates taking on weak opponents in a great enviro. They are worth investment and attention now.

    Caitlin and Kelsey being on the same team is like Steph/Durant in 2017-19. They are 1a and 1b which hurts MVP case. Same kind of goes for the Lynx though it’s not crazy at all to have Miles at 1. I’d go A’ja/PB/Miles in a tier 1 then CC/Kelsey/Rhyne in a tier 2.
