Chuck Schumer

These are your Democratic Party Fast Track villains in the Senate, at least the visible ones.

Because of the seats that are up in 2016, it is almost a foregone conclusion that the Democrats would take back the Senate regardless of the top of the ticket. Trump just makes GOP defense more difficult. Unfortunately, because of the seats that are up in 2018, it is almost a foregone conclusion that the Republicans will take back the Senate.

The GOP could never inflict the kind of damage on the Democrats that Schumer doesThursday night, the NY Times suddenly woke up to something we've been harping on all year-- only the Times referred to what we call DSCC incompetence and corruption as the Democrats we
