Grace,

are you really surprised McConnell won? You have posted several times that lead me to believe you are surprised. If you had been paying attention, there was evidence for quite a while that McConnell was going to win. I'm always surprised at surprised people. Yes, it was a closed primary. McConnell has won by 25%, more than the 20% that was predicted.

McConnell can still very well lose the general election. And I won't shed a tear if he does.

Thinking long term, it's obvious you can't have conservative governance with liberal leadership. He has to go, strategically speaking.

Ah, but the real numbers lie in the primary turnout.
Grimes is getting a lot more Rat votes than McConnell GOP votes.
That is a big red flag.

I am not too surprised, but I think that despite the win Mitch may realize soon that his days in office are numbered.

Incumbent Senate minority leader and he only gets 60% of the vote against a nondescript candidate. Weak.
