I'm surprised that more people are not following this here except for TPM. This is significant because it'll mean that the GOP with have to spend sizable amounts of money to try and hold this seat. It'll would likely cripple any chance of the GOP gaining the Senate and likely even complicate McConnel's hold on his own seat. Because I think it'll ripple through the caucus and fall at his feet.
