JEREMIAH DENTON ON LINE ONE:
GOP fears Senate debacle (Josh Kraushaar & Andrew Solender, 7/15/22, Axios)Top Republicans, once confident about winning control of the Senate in the midterms, fear they'll blow it after nominating several deeply flawed candidates in winnable states, according to conversations with GOP strategists, pollsters and other officials.
