Wednesday: The Senate Firewall Republicans Thought Was Safe
Wednesday, June 24 — the Senate map just moved against Republicans, and most of Washington is still looking the other way.
Rush and Reagan break down the Cook Political Report's June 11 ratings shift that dropped Alaska and Ohio to toss-up and pushed North Carolina into Lean Democrat territory — and what it means for a party defending 23 of 35 seats. They walk through the structural math behind Democrats' four-seat path, the candidate quality problem the GOP created for itself in North Carolina with Michael Whatley, and why Iowa moving in an R+13 state is the number nobody in Republican circles wants to explain. Then the main event: Susan Collins down nine points in Maine, $99 million in Republican ad reservations, and a race that may decide Senate control.
The meta-story is the one the GOP should be losing sleep over — and Rush and Reagan don't let it off the hook. Five months left. Tell us where you think this ends up — and tune in Thursday for the next race breakdown.
