They are intentionally done. I have seen MSNBC predicting about Kansas turning blue. That is as fake as it gets.

That aligns with what I am saying. She is a huge part of the old failed party. Re-elected Pelosi, picked party insider Perez. They refuse to learn.

Sorry, nobody's buying it. When the Democrats have to focus on 450 Congressional races instead of one and they can't outspend the opposition 2 or 3 or 4 to 1, these seats will be safe again.
The person who is likely to buy it is the GOP Congressman who barely won election.

I'm not sure it's as important in this race as this seems to be a pretty conservative area BUT the (D)'s are going to have to run people who are not (R)'s with a couple social differences or they will continue to lose.
I don't think (D)'s are alternative to growing number of people who want an alternate to the (R)'s.

So, the Dems torched only a mere $25 million in this election.

The good news is that most of it came from CA and NY, although why the donors want to burn their money in a losing effort in the first place is somewhat of a mystery.

It's should come as a relief to Ossoff that he lost by a fair margin. It would have been a real downer if the single vote that would have tied the election was the one he himself could not cast because he didn't live in the the district he was running to represent.

And, on the plus side, it appears that whenever a GOP-leaning Congressional district needs a quick infusion of cash, all they have to do is call a special Congressional election, and the moolah from the coasts will shower down like raindrops during the monsoon season.

Yet they won't dump her and even after the shellacking they took during Obama's term.
