They're both up now. When Biden was doing stuff and gas was going down they were favored but unless they really cash in on early voting and new/unlikely voters I'd say Oz and Walker are going to win their races.
The thing that has me extra leery of turning to the GOP for the 2 years is that the worse the country is doing for the next 2 years the more likely the GOP will win back the white house in 2024. They actually have incentive to make sure inflation and gas prices stay high and we as a people feel the pain because they know the more agony we are in, the more likely we'll put Trump back into power.
Basically, they make sure nothing gets done to fix the economic woes the average person feels and they are free to cut taxes on the ultra wealthy and push for unpopular social policies and we regular working schmos are going to reward them for keeping us down. Sunny disposition, I know.

Maybe....Trump is 100% going to announce he's running and it's been clear that he would since the day he won in 2016. DeSantis is already hinting he has presidental aspirations despite everyone knowing Trump is going to run in 2024. Some of the comments from Trump and his team towards DeSantis show that they already regard him as a threat.
