The biggest winners in Tuesday's election?

Hint: *Not* the American people.


If the runoff election in GA goes Sen. Warnock's way*, the Senate will likely be 50-50 again, until 2024 this time, so the real "winners" will be Sens. Sinema and Manchin.

They'll still be relevant.


* - And if it goes the way of Republican Walker, Sinema and Manchin will be less relevant.  The Rs will then hold a 51-49 advantage in the chamber, and Mitch McConnell will use that advantage to kill off the filibuster in order to railroad through a raft of bad bills.
