AZ-PPP (D): Flake getting crushed by Generic Democrat

[Mr. Smith]

I still don't understand why so many people think Flake Johnson will hang on while Heller Kirk won't. I think Heller Kirk is much more likely to win reelection than Flake Johnson (but I think they'll both lose in the end).

FTFY, but I do hope you're right about that last part.

Heller losing and Arizona pulling a Tennessee '94 is the best shot atm.

[Mr. Smith]

oh sh** oh sh** its gettin real

I feel a Flake retirement is not out of the cards.

uhhh time to start polling in Texas.

Yes. Why else would he have attacked Trump in such strong terms in his book?

I don't know. He's ramped up his fundraising for another run, and he seems well aware that the book could sink his reelection, but he noted, "if I do it after my reelection, then what courage is that?" That to me indicates he'll run and doesn't give a  if he goes down in flames, in either the primary or general.

Could be using that money to pull a Ted Kennedy in 2020.
