The Kentucky Republican identifies a large number of toss-up contests

The 2018 midterms are setting up to be like a “knife fight in an alley,” according to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

The Republican from Kentucky said he expects to see more of President Donald Trump and former President Barack Obama on the campaign trail.

But McConnell, asked about whether Trump should be talking about the prospects of Democrats trying to impeach him, said, “I don’t have any advice to give him about what he says at the rallies.”

Speaking at a news conference Tuesday in Louisville, McConnell rattled off a list of 2018 Senate races he considers, “dead even.”

“Arizona, Nevada, Tennessee, Montana, North Dakota, Missouri, Indiana, West Virginia and Florida. All of them too close to call and every one of them like a knife fight in an alley; I mean, just a brawl in every one of those places,” McConnell said. “I hope when the smoke clears, that we’ll still have a majority in the Senate.”
