No. He might be able to keep it within single digits, but barring a Moore scenario, Kentucky is not winnable for a Democrat at the federal level.

You haven't seen the poll, today, just line Ra were confident that Bevin was gonna win😏😏😏

All it would to is make KY senate race go from Safe R to Likely R, closer to safe than lean.



McGrath is gonna beat McConnell

No. Just because Beshear managed to pull off a narrow upset last year does not mean that McConnell is vulnerable. Bear in mind that every other statewide Republican won while Matt Bevin was going down, and that except for the Secretary of State's race, that they won by double-digit margins. Moreover, Trump will be carrying Kentucky with more than 60% of the vote again, and even someone like Adkins would not be able to gain the necessary level of crossover votes to eke out a victory. And as is well known, McConnell is ruthless, and would tear down Adkins just like he has torn down all of his previous opponents. This race is Safe R.

You Rs do underestimate the wave, Dems won 40 seats and they were only supposed to net 25.

Yes, and McConnell has the same approvals as Bevin. We have to see more polling done on TX and KY, obviously Cornyn or McConnell can lose in a wave, but just remember,  this is a Prez year and in 2008, when Bush W had Trump approvals, McConnell was in a tight race with Lunsford. 44% approvals is not a sure thing

Elaine Chao is his wife, and she obstructed the impeachment process before it even began.  Voters in KY know that, this was an internal poll done, he is isnt polling nearly as he should like Graham or Inhofe whom are polling 51/37.  McConnell was always gonna obstruct the impeachment hearing as long as his wife, whom worked in Labor Dept during Bush W yrs, now she works for Transportation department

I believe he needs to be remove to remove the conflict of interest between his wife and Trump and Elaine Chao

that will only make him more popular, if it has any effect at all (which it won't)

McConnell has a 44% approval like his poll numbers

Voters in Kentucky are not going to care about McConnell's wife, or about an "obstruction" of the impeachment process. Trump is very popular in the state, and as I said, will garner more than 60% of the vote there again. Any attacks against McConnell on these grounds will not succeed.

You’re talking to a troll, dude. You’re wasting your time.


Yeah okay your Trump is losing by 7, and think that WI is gonna vote R and every poll shows otherwise. Also, I am not the one that thinks MT is going blue for Gov and NH and VT are gonna stay red, and Trump is leading by 20 in MT

McConnell and Cornyn are elderly and McConnell has been in the Senate since 1984, no one thought Leader Daschle was gonna lose, but Trump isnt a typical R and is weak Prez. Natl polls have shown a 7 pt gap between Bernie and Trump. The Big 3 can lose; McConnell,  Cornyn and Graham. They obstructed the impeachment hearing and along with Ernst and Collins,  covered for Prez Trump, whom will go to prison

Ducey won his race in a landslide and McSally lost, Trump can carry KY and Mcconnell can still lose. Both McConnell and Trump have 44 percent approvals. Obviously,  this race is wave insurance. AZ, CO, ME and NC are D pathway to majority
