Your arguing identity politics while attacking identity politics.
Futher more, there are 18 names on the ballot, only 2 will move on, Democrats already have a candidate with 40+ percent of the vote, so they already know who to put money behind, Republicans do not, its a 4 way race for them.
Once the primary is over, they will all get behind the one candidate.
this isnt a white house discussion, this is a discussion on who the people support, Being in the white house doesnt meant he people support you, it means the system we have in place allowed you to be elected.
It means Hillary didn't care about certain states, and they made her pay.
She got what she deserved.

On the contrary. I am acknowledging the result of the identity politics platform in the Democrat party and the affect identity politics had on its historically solid, white working class, Democrat base of voters.
Identity politics embraced by the Far Left faction of the Dem Party resulted in life-long Democrat, white working class, rural, often religious Americans thinking of themselves as a disadvantaged group whose identity was ignored and rejected by their Democrat Party. Thus, these voters defected from the Democrat Party.

That argument would work if you hadnt been posting on this site for years about race and class.
Maybe you mean that this particular post was meant to only highlight your perspective on Democrats.

I'm not the subject of this topic. If you decide to discuss the topic of this thread or points in my post you disagree with and why, I am happy to oblige.
Both sides are pouring money into this race. Why do you think the republicans put so much money into the Kansas race. This seat isn't important by itself but because it's Tom Price's seat and Trump narrowly won here it is important to prove a point.
Special elections can attract vast spending because there the competition for $$$ is minimal compared with general elections where the competition for donations is enormous.

So...why did Democrats abandon working class voters? As a member of the rent serf class, why hasn't the rent serf class acquired a political identity? Looks like another opportunity ignored by Democrats.

the topic of the thread is money spend on House races, not identity politics, or even who will win.

Perhaps you could start a thread regarding this question? And please offer your definition of the "rent serf class".
