You're conflating this and cherry picking a single point from many... but hey, continue believing whatever you will.

I'll keep hoping that a bunch of people who lived in the swamp are the best to clean it up. So far, it seems to be working; even with all the obstructionism and illegal leaking by the Obama holdovers.


The Dems need to put country before party. The Pubs are least attempting to.

I left the R's because of that very thing. Maybe moderate Dems are beginning to be fed up as well.

95 seats are held by republicans in districts less red then ga06. Even better? Republicans think of this as winning. Lol.

And the winning ironic part? In 2009 they lost all 9 of the special elections.....and then in 2010 took the house from democrats. History repeats itself.

I remember the last win the Democrats had...last week they beat Republicans in a baseball game!

But the headline was stolen by the Bernie voter who shot Republicans!

I hope Scalise and the others will recover fast.

Democrats keep it going and bring it on as CNN can go back to collusion and Russia for the next 3 years.

Meanwhile we enjoy the recovering to MAGA!

So, quite clearly the "resistance" movement is running out of steam. What is so amusing is that they have a losing formula , and conservatives wish them to continue , as long as nobody gets hurt or injured in the process. On CNN, on pundit said she wished they ditched the civility in these special elections. The implication that Osoff was too timid and not really real "resistance" material. Music to the ears of conservatives. They want the dems to posture and invoke their rebel spirit from the 70's. Get militant , but again do not hurt, kill or maim others. Self destruct playing revolutionaries in a world of make believe. Dems are above such banal matters as health care and the economy now. They are as we all know a band of present day political revolutionaries and warriors . The stuff or myth and legend.

You are seriously in denial. Even the MSM talking heads disagree with you.

Disappointing results for sure. Democrats really need to get it together, Sanders and Pelosi are not the ones to do it.

That's because they want people to watch. Going into this knowing it's a huge reach? That's reality and facts

Shrug. What? Now the msm is factual and true? Lol. They are a business. And hype sells.
