Adam Edelen was seen by many as a rising star in Kentucky, but tonight he lost his reelection bid for state auditor. Many believed he would run for Senate in 2016 against Rand Paul, or in 2020 against Mitch McConnell (or for an open seat if McConnell retires). Do you think Edelen will / could still try to mount a bid for Senate (or for a different office in Kentucky), and would Democrats welcome his entrance into the race? I know it's a little soon for him to be making the decision, but was curious about what your thoughts were. After tonight it looks like it will be increasingly hard for democrats to get elected in Kentucky, so they may turn to Edelen (or other candidates who have lost) due to a lack of other options as well.
