  Hello — Democrats have virtually no chance of taking back the Senate unless we flip this seat in Colorado — and with the latest poll showing our race in single digits, we cannot afford to make any mistakes. Especially as Republican groups unload an avalanche of attacks in the closin…

re: Mitch McConnell

  Hello — Republicans aren’t just trying to beat me in this race — they are desperately fighting to save Mitch McConnell’s Senate majority. And their plan could work. The latest poll has our race in single digits. Other elections across the country are tightening, too — which means Re…

McConnell

  Hello — This weekend, The New York Times wrote a story about Mitch McConnell’s increased desperation to save his Senate majority. He described this election, and I quote, as “a knife fight in an alley.” Look, we have always known that Mitch McConnell and his right-wing allies were g…
