Ironically, if the dems hadn't been so obstructionist with appointing judges, the Republicans wouldn't have killed the judicial appointment filibuster, and this would have been filibustered.

The judicial filibuster was removed by Dems in 2013 after years of extreme obstruction by Republicans. It was nominally kept in place for SCOTUS but never was tested under Obama because there was never a vacancy there for the GOP to obstruct from the minority. By the time Garland came up the GOP had held the Senate and obstructing for years across the federal judiciary and this was just one more.

Dems are up in: CA, OR, WA, NV, CO, IL, NY, MA, VT, NH, MY, HI, and probably AZ assuming Kelly wins the special. NH and maybe AZ feel like the only ones where there'd be a need for defense. Republicans would be defending: PA, WI, NC, FL, OH, IN, KY, SC, AL, LA, AR, MO, IA, ND, SD, KS, OK, UT, ID, AK. The winner of GA's special would also be up and probably Republican. PA and WI could maybe even be pickup opportunities despite the tendencies of midterms to favor the out of power party. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ...
