(CNN) - Kentucky Democrat Amy McGrath, a former fighter pilot who rose to national prominence last year in her failed campaign for Congress against Republican Andy Barr, is turning her sights on a new target: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. In a three-minute video released Tuesday, McGrath said McConnell has "bit by bit, year by year, turned Washington into something we all despise." "I'm running for Senate because it shouldn't be like this," McGrath added. But it was not enough for McGrath to best Barr, who won by about 3 points in the 2018 election. In the race against McConnell, McGrath appears poised to run as a moderate seeking to break the partisan gridlock in Washington.
