What do they expect the reaction from everyday people will be?
It depends upon how stupid, ignorant, racist and homophobic they are.

Talk about comparing apples to oranges.

I could use the same stupid argument to say that Karen Handel is far more popular in GA-6 than your Lord and Master Donald Trump.

Whatever works for you.

The country is smarter than the idiots pushing the silly Russian narrative would like to believe. The elections yesterday prove it.
Well, hopefully the liberal west coast states will unite and leave the US and become our own country. The US is becoming more like Russia everyday, and I don't want that for my son.

If that is all you got, same old name calling, this is why the dems are getting destroyed. The liberal media has become a joke. The dems have a hate message. That is all they got.

Insightful (if hyperbolic) reader comment for the NYT's boo-hoo story today:

"Democratic losses are also partly attributable to things happening in our society, over which the party has little control, but which gets blamed for it. The constant drumbeat of racism. Taking down confederate monuments. The vilification of American heritage because it once supported or condoned slavery. Add to things like this the refusal of many Democrats to accept the results of the last election, even declaring it was "illegitimate" because of the electoral college, and forming a "resistance" movement, and using every opportunity to disparage and denounce the President and his supporters, plus all the name calling. I mean, it is clear to me many Democrats have virtually gone berserk over this - and it appears to many voters their very culture and heritage are under attack - from Democrats.

Nobody wants to vote for the people who utterly hate this country and the vast majority of the people in it. They may not mean to be, but they come off as anti-American. To many Democrats these days, America is a racist, fascist horror, a "Great Satan" that deserves to die, and Trump is a dictator, clown, buffoon, and hater of Muslims and a racist. ISIS could not have a better friend than Democrats these days. And they hate this country, too - just like the Democrats. And most Democrats can give you a thousand reasons why they hate this country - and they are anxious for the chance to tell you why you should hate it, too! America: what an awful place!"

In all four recent elections, Pubs have had to fight like hell to get a narrow win.

It's like they're already tired of winning.


LOL, that's left wing logic for you, akin to "we only lost by a few votes (or so we say), so we really won and the GOP better watch out!!!!!!

From all media reports and other indications, it wasn't just the GOP that worked hard to ensure their candidate's win, the Democrats spent a bundle of money, canvassed, knocked on doors, passed out fliers to try and ensure that their candidate won, and it was with the tone of desperation that they claimed the win in this race was a proxy for anti-Trump sentiment, and 2018 midterm election results. So the Dems worked hard to try and defeat the GOP candidate in all of these special elections, for all the good it did them.

And it's President Trump to you.

Exactly! It is unbelievable the left continues with their nasty, lying rhetoric.

The people spoke. AGAIN. And we will continue to do so.

Meanwhile, the left will continue to work with lame stream to spread lies and deceit.

Contrary to popular opinion, I think the DNC should keep Nancy Pelosi.

And dump Don Lemon.

Dude is killin 'em. Hell, I'd even vote GOP if it would shut him up.
