I agree with your assessment, though I'd say we live in Schrodinger's America, where in many states 'abortion' and 'preservation of democracy' were the driving forces behind turnout, whereas in NC, FL, TX, IA, etc...these forces were barely a feeble flicker.
There is no winning formula in many states...no one can honestly state that Grassley was the better candidate. Walker is incapable of operating a revolving door, Abbott can apparently allow unlimited slaughter of children with zero political repercussions.
It could have been worse, I'm grateful there wasn't violence. That's as optimistic as I get.
