And placing all your money on snake eyes would also be bad math.

    Snake eyes? That's a ⅙^2^ chance. ¹/36 to be precise. 2.7%.

    Starting next session, there will be over 100 progressives in Congress. That's nearly one out of three Dems. ⅓.

    You just need to roll a five or a six. That's all. Just one five or one six.

    Maybe don't bet the deed to your house on it. But it's worth any little smidgeon of faith you can work up. Especially in a game where mere belief could be enough to influence the result.
