This experience of Democrats putting up candidates that are probably objectively weaker and more susceptible to lose.

I don't know that it will come back to bite them, but it's so clear that if you put up somebody that's not fit for the state that you – and remember, this is something that Democrats have –

used to their benefit in Arizona.

I think back to Arizona where like both Kyrsten Sinema in one instance and then Mark Kelly in the other, they just got to wait around, had to field themselves, stockpiling cash while Republicans

you know, spent money and beat each other up and, you know, divided the party.

Like, the longer this goes in Michigan, the more divided they are.

It's an August primary.

It's not happening for a little while.

So I think that one is a fascinating race.

I absolutely think this is another case in point where the White House actually did a really good job of rallying behind Mike Rogers early, cleared that field in a way that I think...

there's an opportunity to sneak a seat right there.

Like, on a night where all these things that we're talking about are in play, Republicans have no business winning in Michigan, but we're actually looking at a situation where this race will be on the board unless something changes.

Because even if

Haley Stevens ekes it out, this is not the kind of primary that yields a candidate with the resources and unity that puts the race away.

I think it'll be competitive heading into election night.

Yeah, I think the Massey one is really interesting because he's been a gadfly throughout his career.

That's been his whole brand all along.

And I actually it reminded me on on primary night, he had one of the best quotes I've heard of the Trump era.

I think the 2017 interview that he had with the Washington Examiner, I think his line was, you know, for the longest time, I thought they were voting for me and for Ron Paul and for Rand Paul because we were the most conservative or maybe he's a libertarian.

And he said, and then Donald Trump comes along and I realize they're just voting for the craziest son of a bitch in the race.
