2. That's hard to say

They have some pretty red states with incumbent Democratic senators running in them. They might very well want to get them on the record opposing an otherwise appealing-to-Republicans nominee and try to defend it.

It would take attention away from Trump's unpopularity.

4. What have you got against witches?

By and large, every single Witch I know is a million times better human being than McConnell.

You want to use a really damning pejorative, use his name. It's already mud and it evokes more disgust by the day.

helpfully,
Bright

5. McCONnell will also use it to energize RepubliConned voters. . . . nt
