YA KNOW, I'M STARTING TO NOTICE A PATTERN AMONG THESE SHOOTINGS... ARIZONA: DEMOCRATS WANT TO WIN GOVERNORSHIP AND DEFEND DEMOCRAT MARK KELLY'S SENATE SEAT; TEXAS: DEMOCRATS WANT TO UNSEAT GREG ABBOTT; GEORGIA: DEMOCRATS WANT TO UNSEAT BRIAN KEMP AND DEFEND DEMOCRAT RAPHAEL WARNOCK'S SENATE SEAT; S. CAROLINA: DEMOCRATS WANT TO DEFEND DEMOCRAT JAMES CLYBURN'S SEAT AND POTENTIALLY MAKE GAINS ON THE STATE LEVEL. IT'S ALSO IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO SAVANNAH; TENNESSEE: ALTHOUGH CHATANOOGA IS A RED CITY IN A RED DISTRICT, IT'S RIGHT ACROSS THE BORDER FROM AFOREMENTIONED GEORGIA AND CLOSE TO NORTH CAROLINA, WHERE DEMOCRATS HOPE TO PICK UP A SENATE SEAT; VIRGINIA: DEMOCRATS WANT TO DEFEND THE SEATS OF DEMOCRAT REPRESENTATIVES FROM VA-7 AND VA-2, WHILE ALSO BEING ABLE TO ATTACK GOV. GLENN YOUNGKIN (R); PENNSYLVANIA: DEMOCRATS WANT TO KEEP THE GOVERNORSHIP AND WIN RETIRING REPUBLICAN PAT TOOMEY'S SENATE SEAT; MICHIGAN: DEMOCRATS WANT TO RETAIN GOVERNORSHIP AND SOME COMPETITIVE HOUSE SEATS; NEBRASKA: DEMOCRATS WANT TO UNSEAT DON BACON (R) IN NE-2, THE DISTRICT THAT ENCOMPASSES OMAHA AND MOST OF ITS SUBURBS; COULD THIS BE A COINCIDENCE? MAYBE. BUT THEN AGAIN, THE DEMOCRAT PARTY HAS A HISTORY OF USING VIOLENCE TO MAKE POLITICAL GAINS.
