NBC News: The GOP’s bid to retake the Senate is encountering early struggles

Key Points:

• The latest allegations against Missouri Senate Republican candidate Eric Greitens underscore just how messy, crowded and potentially flawed the GOP’s Senate fields of candidates are.

• In Georgia, GOP frontrunner Herschel Walker… has admitted his own past violent behavior as part of his struggle with mental illness.

• Republicans struck out in recruiting their top choices in Arizona (Gov. Doug Ducey), Maryland (Gov. Larry Hogan) and New Hampshire (Gov. Chris Sununu).

• The GOP’s field in Ohio has gotten unruly and chippy (see last night’s debate…).

• They — and especially Trump (with his endorsements, non-endorsements and beefs with Ducey/Hogan) — haven’t done themselves any favors with their fields of candidates.
