.SenRickScott's leadership under scrutiny amid tepid GOP Senate gains
Scott, who heads the National Republican Senatorial Committee, projected that Republicans would hold 52 to 55 seats in the Senate next year, publicly contradicting Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's more cautious predictions.
"When you're the NRSC chairman, your role is to do no harm," a Republican strategist with knowledge of the Senate races told the Washington Examiner."It's to help where you can, it is to help fundraise, and it's to lend air support — not to put your candidates in a position of answering all your bad ideas."
McConnell, who declined to release a governing agenda ahead of the midterm elections, publicly dismissed Scott's proposal in March.
