kavanaugh factor in helping mcconnell and helping out some of these other republican senate candidates. mcconnell has talked about how after his fight and pushing brett kavanaugh through, how his numbers skyrocketed. he s been treated like a rock star. other candidates running next year have gone through a similar phenomenon, namely lindsey graham. i would not rule that out as an insignificant factor. some of those clips mcconnell used are ones andy barr used against mcgrath last cycle and they proved successful for him. mcgrath is likely going to play heavy on health care because it was a good issue for democrats in 2018, and she sees a weakness there. mcconnell has tried to repeatedly repeal and replace obamacare with no success. so i expect that her campaign will push hard on that, as the administration and as mcconnell maybe tries to go toward immigration. which is going complicate for her if the nominee of the democratic party supports medicare for all. so it s all wrapped up.
