NANCY PELOSI: It would be very important for the Democrats to retain control of the Senate. Civilization as we know it today would be in jeopardy if Republicans win the Senate.

MAHER: This and ISIS are threatening civilization. Oh, no.

PELOSI: Yeah, it is really important. But let’s not put ourselves to the stipulation that we’re not going to win the Senate. Let’s instead work really hard. The fact is that it’s all about turnout and many people want to support the Democrats. We just have to make sure that they turn out for the election.
