"SNIP.....

“The Republicans’ Senate campaign committee has slashed its television ad reservations in three critical battleground states for the fall, a likely sign of financial troubles headed into the peak of the 2022 midterm election season,” the New York Times reports.

“The National Republican Senatorial Committee has cut more than $5 million in Pennsylvania, including its reservations in the Philadelphia media market.”

“Reservations in Wisconsin, in the Madison and Green Bay markets, have also been curtailed, by more than $2 million. And in Arizona, all reservations after Sept. 30 have been cut in Phoenix and Tucson, the state’s only two major media markets, amounting to roughly $2 million more.”

Taegan Goddard: This is a clear admission that Donald Trump’s favored candidates aren’t worth the investment.

1. Good news!

[marble falls]

5. Sounds good for PA and AZ

Is WI that non-competitive as well? And if so, which way is it noncompetitive?

6. Quite recently, in some circle, RoJo was called the most vulnerable GOP Senator

7. Damn. Nice!

I'd think RoJo and Lil Marco would be the safest of the bunch, as they're the only R incumbents. But it sounds like both are having issues.

Kelly is all over TV in AZ right now, and his ads are good (Masters quote calling abortion a religious sacrifice).

8. It's going to be a blowout, folks!

You heard it here first.

probably prefers not to.

12. Do NOT get complacent. The answer to the radicalized Republican party is MORE DEMOCRATS.
