Debbie Downer Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who is so out of touch with the direction the Republican Party is headed, doesn’t think the Senate is going to win the midterm elections due to “candidate quality”.

“I think there’s probably a greater likelihood the House flips [to Republicans] than the Senate,” said McConnell, according to NBC News. “Senate races are just different. They’re statewide. Candidate quality has a lot to do with the outcome.”

McConnell has repeatedly criticized former President Donald Trump for his America First candidates, and some took his mention of “candidate quality” as a knock on Trump’s recent endorsement wins in several crucial races.

According to Real Clear Politics, the Democrats are expected to carry Senate races in Connecticut (Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn.), Washington (Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash.) and Colorado (Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo.).

Conversely, Republicans are slated to prevail in Florida (Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla.), Alaska (Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska), Missouri (candidate Eric Schmitt) and Alabama (candidate Katie Britt).

For other Senate races, however, Real Clear Politics has the opposing parties essentially operating in “toss-up” situations.

In April, McConnell acknowledged that even though the Democrats were in trouble, it was “actually possible” that Republicans could “screw this up” in November.

“In the Senate, if you look at where we have to compete in order to get into a majority, there are places that are competitive in the general election,” McConnell said four months ago. “So, you can’t nominate somebody who’s just sort of unacceptable to a broader group of people and win. We had that experience in 2010 and 2012.”
