Robert Costa twitter via Mark Levin twitter. I'm not sure why Mr. Levin says this is "good news" for McDaniel. Stuart P. Stevens was Haley Barbour's ad director in Barbour's 1982 campaign for US Senate against Democrat John Stennis. (parag. 16) Barbour lost 64-36%.
Multiple Barbour family members are heavily involved in the campaign of McDaniel's opponent, Thad Cochran.

"Mississippi Republican consultant Austin Barbour will join Mitt Romney's campaign in Boston and will serve as deputy to top Romney adviser Stuart Stevens, The Huffington Post has learned from sources with knowledge of the move.
Barbour has been a national finance chairman for Romney, and helped staff get out the vote efforts in numerous primary states. He also headed up the ground game for Romney in Mississippi, where the former Massachusetts governor came closest to winning a state in the deep South.

Barbour’s nephews, Henry and Austin Barbour, and Barbour himself, Burns wrote, are all an “integral part of the sophisticated political operation seeking to quash Cochran’s primary opponent from the GOP’s right flank.” Henry and Austin Barbour both serve in key roles for the Cochran re-election effort; Henry is the head of the pro-Cochran Super PAC Mississippi Conservatives PAC while Austin is a senior Cochran campaign strategist."...
