Republican Senate hopeful Danny Tarkanian, who is challenging Sen.

Tarkanian’s comments came in response to an attack leveled by the Senate Leadership Fund, an influential outside group with close ties to McConnell, which accused Bannon a day earlier of anti-Semitism.
The volley is part of an escalating feud between Bannon-backed insurgent candidates and the GOP incumbents who McConnell is seeking to protect.
Tarkanian said in a statement that McConnell’s allies are “running scared” after Sen.

Flake faced a tough path to reelection and faced a challenge from another Bannon-backed candidate in Arizona.
He said McConnell and his allies are fearful because Bannon is “helping put real conservatives — not obstructionists — in office.”

“I call on McConnell to get back to work and I denounce the smearing of conservatives,” he continued. “We don’t tolerate it on our school playgrounds and we shouldn’t tolerate it from our elected officials. I call on ‘DC’ Dean Heller to join me in publicly denouncing McConnell’s smear campaign.”
Tarkanian had been pressuring Heller to sign a petition saying he would not support McConnell as majority leader.
That effort provoked a response from the Senate Leadership Fund, which was started by allies of McConnell and aims to reelect incumbent Republican senator.

Bannon’s allies say they’re used to being called racists by Democrats but are furious to see it coming from Republicans.
The Senate Leadership Fund’s allegations stem from a 2007 court filing between Bannon and his then-wife, Mary Louise Piccard, who claimed in documents that he made anti-Semitic comments while looking at schools for his daughters.
Bannon denied the report at the time and his adviser this week called the allegations “desperate and false personal attacks” that are “further proof that McConnell Inc. is imploding in front of our very eyes.”
The war between Bannon and McConnell has escalated in recent days.
