Eh, if she can drag any downballot candidates over the finish line, I'll consider it a success.

I'm backing Mike Broihier, who just announced today. Although he's running on some No Labels message, he seems solid enough on the issues and isn't a flip flopper like McGrath

If McGrath could not beat Barr, can she beat McConnell? Probably not.

Then, let McGrath step aside and she can be a Defense Secretary for a Democratic president.

I like McGrath, she clearly has a grudge against McConnell and for good reason.

But she couldn't even win the second most Democratic district in the state during a D+9 Democratic wave. Her chances of beating McConnell approach 0%. In fact, even matching Alison Grimes' losing margin would be a big surprise.

Nate Silver thinks McGrath has a shot because of approval ratings and his status as a party leader. This is his job and he still hasn't learned from past elections.

The fact that Phil Bredesen, a guy with 60% favorables for most of the 2018 cycle, lost by double digits in a state that is a little friendlier to Dems than KY is in a D+9 year isn't teaching these people a lesson is beyond me. Screw it, I might go drop a ton of money on McConnell now too on PredictIt. So much for Democrats being more logical and reasonable when they still think beating McConnell is possible, lol.

People are incapable of learning and let their hackery get in the way of reasonable electoral analysis far too often. Just look at all the Republicans who donate to the opponents of Pelosi, AOC, Maxine Waters, etc. in their D+9000 districts, lol.

Atlas consensus here is so dumb and tiresome. Yes, it's an uphill race, but the whole map is uphill! Because of the nature of the map, you have to make a serious effort to pick up seats in Montana, and Texas, and Kansas, all of which are going to be extraordinarily difficult. At least in this one you've got a good candidate who is fundraising well and will run a competitive election — absolute malpractice to write it off as safe R now.

The difference is that those states are potentially winnable in ideal circumstances. KY is not. Any cent spent on it is completely lit on fire.

DSCC isnt wasting money in TX Hegar, KY, MT Mues, GA Tonlimson and IA on Greenfield- weakest candidates by far. SC, AL, AK, KS, CO, NM, AZ and ME are seats that they are buying in

I mean, he ain't wrong.

I’m surprised that he is not moving the race to toss-up like he did for TN and NJ last year

He's not responsible for Senate races.

I assume what you actually mean is where you think the DSCC should spend money, but SC and KS over GA, really?

There has never been a better time to be a political consultant looking to get their rake off than for leftists under Trump. The amount of money being thrown at these unwinnable races is insane

At least Republican have a few unwinnable races of their own where they are wasting tons of money.

I’m sure the Resister Sisters will keep throwing money at her because NC, GA, and TX aren’t as “sexy” as getting Mitch McConnell out. Smh.

Wow, thats extremely scummy. Looks like such a tactic may have produced the exact opposite result, now that Jones has been axed he has really nothing to lose by running in the primary.
