For more strategic.

I know AZ is a shot across the bow of the GOP too, but I want HRC & Bernie to be able to get things done starting next year. And the only way to do that is to destroy the GOP in congress.

6. NV's Senate race will be close, no

matter whether Hillary's campaign stays or leaves. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/senate/nv/nevada_senate_heck_vs_cortez_masto-5982.html

But 538 is tipping that race towards Cortez-Masto. http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/senate/nevada/

There's a good-sized Latino population in NV and those Dem voters who vote for Hillary will mostly likely also vote for Cortez-Masto down-ticket. Harry Reid is solidly backing her and Reid has a LOT of clout in NV,

What I love about Hillary's moving efforts to AZ is that a) she has more than a possibility of winning there (http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/arizona/) and b) her campaigning there can possibly help Kirkpatrick in the Senate race. http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/senate/arizona/

I would LOVE it if McCain lost his Senate seat! He's LONG past his due date.

That's how important they want Harry Reid's seat and that's before the NRA dumps more money on gun values campaign to tickle the fancies of our dry humping gun lovers.

AZ can be won, but let's not lose site of what HRC will need in congressional support. The more bodies that will work with her in those chambers will be the difference between moving forward and GOP stonewalling for 8 more years.
