Safe R,

Why do Democrats try to defeat McConnell every election cycle, Republicans will not hurl all their resources at Chuck Schumer in 2022. Are Democrats trying to defeat him, because he is the leader. Either way Safe R, though the pundits will call it Likely R on Election Day due to KY's Dem biases polling. KY polling is ridiculously pro-Democrat this far out (this far out Hillary Clinton was beating Trump in a PPP Kentucky poll).

This time around, I think Democrats are pissed about both Supreme Court seats and how the shutdown was handled. They see him as an obstructionist who wants nothing more than to bend to what Trump wants. Plus, in the EXTREMELY unlikely event that Cocaine Mitch loses in 2020, it is almost certain that Trump has also lost, so it would just be the icing on the cake. Another thing to consider is that the Democratic Senate Minority Leader, Tom Daschle, lost reelection in 2004, and he was the first incumbent Senate party leader to lose since the 50s. I'm sure Daschle's loss still stings for Reid and Schumer, so maybe they've gone after McConnell hard as a sort of revenge mission.

Once Dems defeat Bevin, Dems will target this race

Bevin is defeatable, but remember he is the only candidate that could primary McConnell, considering he lost by 24.77% in that Primary when he was a Businessman. Now, he's been Governor since 2015 and a lot of people would be willing to stomach him more than McConnell.

Safe R if Bevin loses the Gubernatorial, though. Can't wait to see the Ds waste money here like the Rs did in WI in 2018.

You know Dems should abandon this seat when even the Almighty Generic D is 3 points behind Cocaine Mitch. If Bevin somehow goes down this year, I hope the Dems don't get too cocky and waste valuable funds here

Democrats are foolish if they seriously try and contest this seat. McConnell is a real Unbeatable Titan, if one ever existed.

This. Democrats want to target Senate Majority Leader McConnell. If McConnell goes down in 2020, Republicans will try to run Scaramucci in 2022 against Schumer, but Schumer would win reelection.

Democrats should try to target SD-SEN 2022 with John Thune.

A reasonable poll for Dems hopes. McConnell is not safe like everyone thinks

You're delusional.

McConnell, like Feinstein, is a lifer, even when Trump loses as Leader of the GOP, whichever capacity, minority, or majority

So McConnell may die in office?

I would be shocked if he doesn't. He loves power for power's sake.
