I’m guessing that Mitch is trying to wargame how the timing of a vote would affect key Senate races, and getting input from various GOP senators in competitive states.
Bingo.
At the very least, he’s probably trying to make the process not seem rushed. A lot will depend on Graham keeping the hearings moving and on schedule. Maybe he should run them like the hearings Nadler held in the House.
You mean, like Lindsey Graham?
