Right now, he doesn't need help (certainly not financial). Everyone is rating this LIKELY DEMOCRAT. The Koch Brothers are throwing money everywhere, but that doesn't mean it'll move the dial.

If something changes I'll let you know.

The Cock brother are going to spend big in some states, if they think Oregon is one of the states they can buy then they are very demented. I would rather help other D's like Lundrgan-Grimes in Kentucky, Nunn in Georgia, and Davis in Texas (though that one is for governor it is just as important). I think outside money is going to be dumped into Kentucky to try to save McConnell's ass because it would make the Republicans look REALLY bad if another person in the Republican leadership loses (Cantor is already gone).
