If Adkins had won the nomination over Beshear earlier this year, he would probably be on track to defeat Bevin. Against McConnell, however, it's a different story. I think Adkins would do as well as Gray did in 2016, and he would definitely win Elliott County (where he has a base, and where he did exceptionally well against Beshear and Edelen). But McConnell would still win by around 12-15 points in the end, though.

I doubt he would win the primary against McGrath though, especially if Jones runs too.
Amy McGrath will have a small fortune to spend

This is also true, since Adkins did fall short against Beshear, and Jim Gray lost the primary to McGrath last year. It's a shame though, because Adkins and Gray both are more electable than Beshear and McGrath, for those respective races. But again, it ultimately would make little difference. Adkins would lose to McConnell maybe 56-44 or 57-43, while McGrath could very well lose 60-40 or even 62-38 against him.

She’ll probably have a big fortune to spend because idiots keep on pumping money into a lost cause in some vain effort to beat bogeyman McConnell. She raised $2.5 million on the first day alone. Talk about money on fire

Imagine if that was spent in GA and NC where GOP are already trying to smear our people. Ugh.

Forget donating to other political candidates, that money could've gone to like...feeding hungry kids or something. Instead it will become mere ash. Sad!

McConnell should honestly just troll and run those ASPCA type commercials that say "the money used to fund Amy McGrath's advertisements could have been used to send hundreds of our poorest Kentucky seniors to college for free, to build better animal kennels for our pounds, and to cover our poorest citizens' school lunch bill."

McGrath looks like a bad candidate, but McConnell will likely win by 10-25 points.

2021-27 will be his last term in office.

A Democrat can win in 2026 or 2032.

A radical partisan realignment would have to take place for this to happen. If anything, I wouldn't be surprised if McConnell is succeeded by someone like his protegee Cameron.

Well, Rocky's been a loyal soldier in campaigning for Beshear after the primary and if he could help Beshear run better in the East, and Beshear pulls off a win, then without taking sides, Beshear might take sides.  Rocky kind of has a John Bel style that could create a chance against Moscow Mitch.

If there's any place in the party for anti-abortion Democrats, it's certainly not the US Senate. I'd rather take my chances with McGrath or the basketball guy or literally anyone else.

Great ad! Mitch McConnell's contempt for his own constituents is staggering.

Its just like a Greek prophecy at this point. McGrath has created the fate that she had tried so hard to avoid.

I don’t know what’s so attractive about running for a nomination forthe right to get publicly humiliated by McConnell. Unless it’s solely for the graft

1. I don't think that.
2. How would you know? You registered 2 months ago, you shouldn't be able to know about a thread I deleted, unless you're a sock.

In the US Senate next year, yes.
