McConnell's got this locked up.  The Democrats would be wise to cut any and all remaining Ad-time reservations/GOTV money for Kentucky and shift it to anti-Gardner ads in Colorado (where they really need to increase their spending), anti-Rounds ads and GOTV in South Dakota (cheap state, low-risk/high-reward situation), and maybe some ads hitting Ernst on being a crazy person (depending on what's left).

Not gonna happen. The race is too close and too important to give up on. Even if there is only a 1/5 chance of Grimes actually winning, that's still a 1/5 chance that Democrats take out the Minority (soon to be Majority?) Leader of the Senate.

The DSCC just pulled its advertising for the last three weeks in Kentucky.  Grimes is on her own.

Yeah, so I saw. It's a mistake IMO.

They're much more focused on defense, so picking up seats is probably a luxury at the moment

Grimes has $4.4 million COH. She has more than enough to compete.

The only problem is that the turtle has enough to both compete and win.
