So why did Democrats have two big national losses in North Carolina last night?
They spent an astounding $7M to win district 9 against a very flawed Christian conservative. And it appears like they lost. This district consists of very well off suburbs of Charlotte and several very rural counties where Democrats hold majorities due to the high percentages of African Americans living there. They spent 5X more than their opponents.
That should have been a dream match up for Democrats.
Gerrymandering. LOL.
And, I really don't think Republicans should be proud of voting for a very flawed candidate, just because that candidate claims to be a "Christian Conservative" and a "Republican."
The whole state votes for POTUS, not smaller, highly gerrymandered districts.
I am hoping that this gerrymandering issue is taken care of before 2020.

You don't get to unilaterally declare who the nominees will be. Dem nomination is completely up for grabs at this point, and I'm not completely sure there won't be a GOP challenger for Trump. Or maybe a viable third party alternative.

Biden seems like the only really viable candidate to me, the rest seem to far left for what i imagine would be the middle/mainstream voter.

Imagine the ads the PACS will run against Biden. Two days after the convention he will be portrayed as a child molester. They already show pictures of him on conservative sites, saying he paws and gropes females and kids.
Polls right now put Biden first because at this point, they are based on current name recognition. So yes, of course a former VP has better name recognition among the average people polled. But I'm firmly convinced he's not going to make it through the long haul of an actual primary and come out on top any more than he did the other times he's run.
Joe Biden???
Dude will be as old as Reagan when Reagan left office. He got constant flack for being too old at the time, but now Joe is supposed to be a fresh face.
I only wish I could be so imaginative to make this stuff up.

Eh... irrelevant, because the people who hang out on those sites will not vote for a Democrat, anyway.
I mean, how many "grab her by the *****" Trump comments and memes do you see on left wing groups? Plenty. Does not stop anyone who would vote for him from voting, though.
