Yellowhammer Radio, with Andrea Tice and Chris Reid co-hosting, had a chance to talk with Bob Cusack, the Editor in Chief of THE HILL, a media outlet that covers all things political in the Capitol. Cusack broke down this summer’s senate primary race from the standpoint of those in Washington. In particular Cusack pinpointed which GOP candidate the leadership in the National Republican and Democratic Party wants to win and why.

When it comes to any future political gains for either party Cusack said its comes down to three things: messaging, messaging, messaging.
