"Against all odds, Democrats have won the Senate," he says. "We have five words for the American people: relief is on the way."

"Won two presidential elections" seems like a pretty fucking dumb metric, for reasons that should be obvious

Every metric in Texas including but especially the victory margin in his own race shows Talarico coulda won without throwing trans people under the bus.
Every politician that did that, it’s a choice they made because they believe some people are expendable.

Talarico is on record as willing to compromise when it comes to the rights of trans people.
This is important because we have played this game for decades now where the world’s most spineless liberal is defined by their enemies regardless of how much they compromise values & people.
So don’t.

Looks like I needed a +9 metric
My personal benchmarks for the midterms:
Net < 3 senate seats: failure, I will never believe a poll again
Net 3 senate seats: disappointing since it probably locks us into 40 years of Alito/Thomas replacements
Net 4 senate seats: mission accomplished, no complaints
Net 5+ senate seats: nirvana
