Keep not learning that lesson, lefties.

Keep being smarter than everyone else.

Up the ante.

Infuriate.

It’s the path to glory.

The "Progressive" regressives' most insulting line, expressed in a multitude of condescending phrases, is the one that assumed they would win because the Sixth District's voters were a more highly "educated" (meaning, "propagandized" by the liberal/progressive system of higher education).

Well, so much for that arrogant assumption!!

Jon Ossoff was the quintessential Democrat. He spent tons of other people’s money to achieve no result. Sort of like ObamaCare and all the other resource wasting DemocraPolicies of the past present and most likely the future.

The Real Lesson of Ossoff’s Defeat is the Bay Area Can’t Buy an Election

Great Title because Karen Handel managed to make “Nancy Piglosi” a yuge focus of her campaign!

News to Wicked Witch Pelosi, she is hated more than she might imagine or know! While she is busy bashing President Trump, she really ought to do some soul searching. She is despised throughout the nation and she is a campaign lightning rod to get out the Republican vote!

the real lesson is no more complicated than a pair of middle fingers aimed right at a bunch of people who worked very very hard to earn them

Don’t worry about it. They are too stupid to learn.

Look at the “Russian investigations”. They are putting so much into that, so much belief, so much hope, so much Elan Vital!

I have told some of the leftists I work with how stupid I think chasing the Russian ghosts is... and they start to agree with me, you can see them thinking... and then they say, “but there’s real evidence of collusion there, we can’t let that go”.

And I just say “ok”. Because I really don’t want to talk them out of it.

One problem with this analysis:
He is telling them what they did wrong. Not good to point out their mistakes so they can do better next time.

As for “At the Washington Post, where democracy drowns in its own hateful saliva, the lesson is that Ossoff was just too “civil”.

(((
The WaPo would prefer that he act like the shooter at the Virginia ball field.

She can’t do that unless the devil sells it back to her.

The MSM’s take on the election:

“This is a referendum on Trump’s embattled Presidency.”

The real take on the election:

“This is a referendum on the Democrats childish behavior.”

The word that should have been most closely associated with Ossoff is “carpetbagger”. In the modern US, the term is used to refer to a ‘parachute candidate’, that is, an outsider who runs for public office in an area where they do not have deep community ties, or have lived only for a short time.

While Jon Ossoff was born in that district, as soon as he could, he got out of there and went to Washington, D.C., and he only looked back with the idea of getting elective office.

As samtheman said, "Don’t worry about it. They are too stupid to learn."

It's not that they are stupid, i.e. DUH!; but stupid in that they believe they are SO right, that when things don't work out as expected, it is someone else's fault. I have seen them time and time again failing to realize that they have pushed the envelope too far and keep going right off the cliff.

What rock did Ossoff crawl from? How did this nobody become this democrat darling, out of nowhere? He looks and smells fishy.
