In the last week or so it has become increasingly likely that Daniels will jump in. It will be a tough race but I don’t see how Banks can prevail. We’ve seen that Trump endorsements aren’t enough against popular republicans and Mitch Daniels is probably the most popular and consequential political figure of the 21st century in Indiana.
Why not the most consequencial figure for the next 1000 years ?

Aside from the humourous hyperbole, it will either go like Coats or like Bayh.

I don't rate Daniels's chances high.
This is a Senate election which is more ideologically polarized than a Governor's one, there might be too many conservatives in the Indiana GOP for Daniels to win.

I don’t think it’s hyperbole, who else would it be? Mike Pence? Nobody here even likes him. Anyway I think this primary will look like the Young-Stutzman primary in 2016. The establishment candidate will bury the “true conservative” outside of the Fort Wayne metro area.

Is Todd Rokita gonna run for something? I figured he went for AG as a preface for a second go at higher office.

The only reason Mitch Daniels didn't run against Obummer in 2012 (Mitch Daniels/Eric Cantor ticket would've won 400 EVs) was because he had his eye on the 2024 Senate seat this whole time.

I think he wants to run for governor but won’t challenge Braun again after how bad he flopped last time.

In the case of Rokita potentially running, has there ever actually been an instance in which a state had two senators with the same first or last name like Indiana could potentially have?

Oklahoma did until just three weeks ago.

Disappointing as he’s a great guy who would’ve been a net positive, but continues the trend from 2022 of the highest-tier Republican recruits not running simply out of contempt for the idea of being in the Senate.

Interesting statement from Steve Daines, seems possible the field may clear for Banks. Seems odd to me that the NRSC would get involved in a primary for a safe seat.

Sad news. Anyway Banks is fine I guess. At least he’s young enough to maybe have a long career and build some influence for the state along with Todd Young.

Why is the party coalescing around Banks so early? This is a safe R seat and there’s no worries about electability. How do you think Rokita or Spartz feel about being thrown under the bus.

Cause 2022 was a sh*t show. If they want to be able to go on the offensive in 2024 they need to be sure there’s no surprises in their safe seats.

Why wouldn't they ?

Banks will probably follow the party line, so why risk it with a messy primary ?
