Democrats are rightly excited about Conor Lamb’s win in the Pennsylvania special election. But, they need to consider a few things before the fall midterms. A roundup of editorials Friday takes a look at the issue.

Opinions from the left:

1. A Conor Lamb victory in Pennsylvania could also spell trouble for Nancy Pelosi

From The Washington Post: How sure a bet is Nancy Pelosi for speaker even if the Democrats take back the House?

2. Dems Should Be Careful About Their Big Win in Trump Country

From Time: What came together in Pennsylvania isn’t necessarily what will happen around the country this fall.

3. Settle down, Democrats

From The Week: There are reasons not to get too excited about the special election in Pennsylvania.
