Now Im wondering if running Steve Bullock in Montana against Daines is a good idea?
These states/races aren’t really comparable, though. Democrats have a much higher floor in MT, Daines is a weaker candidate than Blackburn, Bullock is the current governor and not a pol attempting to make a comeback, the MT Democratic Party is better organized than TN Dems, etc. Bullock would have to run a hilariously inept campaign for MT-SEN 2020 to be a Lean R race.
I think Daines is in a stronger personal position (party/state environments aside) than Blackburn was starting this race, especially considering that he's the incumbent and she isn't.
But Bullock would be a much stronger candidate than Bredesen is.
