It should be pointed out that Gillum, Abrams, and Nelson all obviously won their elections and were defrauded.

Misspelled Clinton also
Michigan Democrats are incompetent if they arenât showing up with barrels of lighter fluid.
Just because itâs not true nationally or in general doesnât mean itâs not true in some places. Also just because itâs true in some places doesnât mean every progressive has a better chance than every moderate.

Thatâs awesome. Democrats should start running that, and then when Trump makes fun of Graham, just start cutting ads of the two of them ripping each other to shreds and make sure thereâs one on every commercial break on every channel in South Carolina from August til November. Make sure every Republican knows theyâre either for Trump or Graham, but not both.
Itâs win-win!
No one is for Graham down here, trust me. But theyâd rather have an insincere lap dog for Trump than someone that will work against him openly. Thereâs a lot of awareness on this issue and a lot of my conservative acquaintances worked hard to primary him.

I dunno why youâre responding to me because I never made that argument. Iâm saying they basically have the same chance controlling for candidate quality so run your best candidates. Donât run lab-created political Frankensteins that are two parts soccer mom, one part Top Gun, and Russian quaaludes to taste. Theyâve been running this set piece for 40 years and lost to a second teevee star who asked the military to murder civilians.

The text messages, which were obtained by The Associated Press, were from a group chat involving Janicek and five other people, including the female staffer. At one point, he wrote that he had argued with her and then asked whether the campaign should spend money on âgetting her laid.â
âIt will probably take three guys,â he wrote, before describing in graphic detail an imagined group sex scene involving the female staffer.
He then tried walk back those comments as âa joke,â and texted an apology to the group.
âIâm going on no sleep and a bunch of exuberant excitement and I think I was out of line,â he wrote.
In a brief phone interview, Janicek said he doesnât plan to drop out of the race. He alleged that the party was targeting him because he disagreed with its more liberal activists on issues such as abortion rights and gun control.
House rather than Senate race but this would be great if accurate.

âThey donât really want to kick me off the ticket for personal reasons, donât let them fool you, they really dislike me because of policy reasonsâ is an all-time weird defense

The liberals arenât trying to take me down for sexually harassing my female staffers with misogynistic jokes! No, no, theyâre trying to take me down because Iâm against womenâs reproductive rights! TOTALLY DIFFERENT!

They get a B/C grade as a pollster from 538 and donât seem to have done statewide Kentucky polls before so take it with a grain of salt

McConnell will go nowhere. Same with Graham. Unfortunately. A more realistic goal is just taking a small majority
I agree on McConnell but disagree on Graham. KY is about 5-8 points redder than SC.
Trump won with 62.5% and SC with 55%. In 2018, for Congress, KY was 59.6 - 39 while SC was 54.3 - 44.4.
Even with a monster wave, KY is not in play, but SC could be (you would obviously need huge D/black turnout). I wouldnât advocate putting lots of resources into SC, but neither should they ignore it.
On the other hand, I think every dollar sent to beat McConnell is a dollar wasted.
OMG THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING THIS WHOLE TIME
