HSFBfan Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Special Election on Tuesday. RCP has this as a toss up which could be a blow to the republicans. Trump won this district by 20. Saccone in some polls has a 3 pt lead while in other Lamb has a 3 point lead. Saccone had a 12 pt lead not too long ago. Anyone else keeeping up with this election?

The Dems are a failed political party. My God, Trump was elected. I know he's your guy buy honest, as a candidate with the numbers advantage the Dems have, no way an extremist should have won.

Now look at what the party has become. Bunch of lunacy. But thank god our founding fathers were very smart not to rely on the people and make the electoral college. Very smart individuals. The system works. Is everyone always going to be happy with who the President is nope. But we had to endure Obama and now you will endure Trump which I smile until 2024 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the 2 Senator nonsense and the popular vote being so limited in who could vote. So now we have minority rule. If that is a system working than you are correct.

HawgGoneIt Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 The only people worried about these elections that aren't even in their own state and that they can only help the outcome of is by donating to the national party, are the scared ones. Most ordinary folk are living their lives and paying a little attention in their peripheral. The national republican party has dumped somewhere between 7 and 9 million on this special election and may still lose it. And, after December, the districts up there will be redrawn and they could see as many as three seats lost in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
concha Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 RCP has it as a toss-up. You can bet the DNC and Lamb were not happy to see the NK talks announcement and the great jobs numbers this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawgGoneIt Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 The wingnuts can't scapegoat illegals or Mexicans so their next move is scapegoat the media. Forget that the president himself tweets ignorant stuff all hours etc. It's all the msm. Can't make this shit up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it also a bit alarming I have read many , many of your post and you are truly a centrist, as am I. Independent in thought. We are considered liberal extremists by the Trumpets. When extreme passes for normal for so many, we have a problem, Houston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
