There is no such thing as a "reasonable" Democrat. The last of them (Zell Miller) departed years ago.

Did Ms. Sinema say to what she racked up her decision?

In Arizona we have a bomb thrower who told the swing voters to get out the party, quite literally. It's an open seat and she has a chance, but I just don't see her reconciling with the McCain tribe. The Arizona GOP is trumpy while the state in general is not.
West Virginia will probably send Jim Justice to the senate, if he survives until inauguration day. He is an improvement over Joe Manchin, but not particularly conservative.

These two have allowed the filibuster to remain in place, and the supreme court to remain unpacked. Assuming Kamala Harris remains president of the senate, the republicans might lose the filibuster even if they gain a seat.
Which is why candidate quality is important.

I believe in her statement she made a clean breast of it.
