Republicans May Yet Have Upper Hand in Senate

I found this article interesting because it explained that although the Democrats have Senate majority (51 Democrats, 2 Independents, and 47 Republicans) after the recent mid-term elections, the Republican party may really end up having more control. This is due to two reasons. One being that some Democrats will naturally will lean rightward on some decisions. The second being that in two years 23 Democrats will be up for re-election and after these past mid-term elections some will feel inclined to satisfy Republican's in order to increase their chances of holding their seat.
