Safe R -> Likely R just without the McGrath amounts of money contesting the race.

Stop. Unless you're being sarcastic, this race is Safe R, period.

He should wait until Yarmuth retires, unless the state legislatures decides to gerrymander Yarmuth out.

I don't think that's possible, considering his district could be VRA protected.

Oh I don't think there's any conceivable scenario in which Rand loses, but I think Booker could do better than McGrath for sure and possibly better than Grimes in '14/Gray in '16 (40-42%) but his ceiling probably no higher than maybe 44% at best.

His margins compared to recent “flippable” Kenf**ky Senate elections:

2016>2014>2022>2020

Safe R. He’ll do better than Gray in Louisville; much worse just about everywhere else

I mean there's nothing wrong with him running and putting up a fight, in fact that is a good thing, but it is Safe R and he won't change that.

Would be glad to see him as a candidate, but he’d have no chance of beating Paul (nor would any Democrat, though.)

Yeah, I love Booker & I'll gladly support him again, but this is gonna be quite the uphill battle, to say the least.

Having not voted for stimulus, Paul is vulnerable. Booker is strong candidate, running on socialist, secular, pro-stimulus platform like Fetterman who is gonna win Pennsylvania. Booker is Ds wave insurance for 54 D senate. McGrath was female running against McConnell, like Grimes, and lost. Trump is no longer on ballot and Kentucky has popular secular gov. Rs shouldn't take this for granted.

Anyway, I hope we're not getting fooled again when the first poll comes out showing a 42-40% Paul lead and think this is anything but Safe Republican.

I'm inclined to start this at Likely R. Paul isn't as strong as he appears. He's a lot like Matt Bevin would be if he were a Senator, very weak, and very beatable with the right candidate in the right year. I'm not sure Booker is that candidate, and I'm not sure 2022 is that year.

Likely R, closer to Safe R than Lean R.

Keep believing it's not a wave building
