    Siena/NYT polls suggests Graham has polled significantly better as he's gotten the opportunity to preside over cordial, collegial confirmation hearings. If it's tight, Feinstein's praise and (literal) embrace of Graham might just cost Harrison the race. https://twitter.com/Nate_Cohn/status/1316789121914990594 …

        what is the universe where Democrats lose North Carolina and Iowa but win South Carolina (and no other races -- not Georgia, Kansas, Montana, Alaska)?

        Why do we think voters in South Carolina care that Graham gets a hug from a Senator from California?

        I mean, I think that's really overstating it quite a bit - the idea that enough South Carolina voters would base their vote on this is nuts. Feinstein has to go and it was horrible, but yeah.

        One of the arguments against Graham was him rushing through a SCOTUS nominee before the election and Feinstein gave him the OK I’ll go one further - I’ll say it will cost the Dems the senate as other vulnerable GOP can use DiFi’s words of praise to justify their actions

        nah - this has no bearing. DiFi is totally out of touch with this era of politics, but this doesn't matter.

        I have family who live in S.C. Guarantee you they will not be influenced by this and most likely didn't even watch the hearings. They just like voting for the familiar white man who promises them nothing but makes them feel in control.

        Last night Graham broke the law by fundraising for his campaign in a federal building. Today, @SenFeinstein basically endorsed his re-election campaign.

        She has LONG been a problem. I have friends who worked for her & loved her, but... she is so insulated from what is happening in the world that she is not just ineffective but harmful

        So voters are that fickle that one gesture or one event just erases the history of wrongs from Graham that has resulted in Harrison's high poll numbers and fund raising? That is ridiculous.
