I LOVE hearing the truth.

THEY LOST! :)

After 25 in life, moral victories don’t mean as much as succeeding!

But dems like to give prizes for 10th place so...

It is so nice having someone who is willing to fight back against the Establishment Media.

They lost. And the reaction has somewhat been, you know, that they almost won. No, they lost,” Spicer declared.

"Based on that reasoning, Hitler almost won in World War Two," Spicer added.

Let’s not kid ourselves — the huge Republican circular firing squad nearly blew it. The Democrats do teamwork far better than the Republicans.

In what sense did they lose? A Democrat got the most votes. In the runoff, it’s no sure thing. Ossoff was very close to getting a majority. So, Handel doesn’t have a lot of margin for error. She doesn’t automatically get 51.4% of the vote.

Democrats Begin To Wonder: When Do We Win?
Fox News ^ | 04/19/17 | By Gabriel Debenedetti / FR Posted by drewh

For all the roiling anger and energy at the grass roots, the party still fell short in Georgia and Kansas. And Democratic prospects in upcoming elections aren't promising.

As it became clear late Tuesday evening that Jon Ossoff would fall just short of the 50-percent mark in the first round of voting in a suburban Atlanta special election, Democrats back in Washington started leafing through their calendars and asking: When does the winning start?

Ossoff’s 'moral victory' — capturing 48 percent of the vote in a conservative-oriented district — was welcome, but after two successive close-but-no-cigar finishes in House special elections in Georgia and Kansas, a new worry is beginning to set in.

For all the anger, energy, and money swirling at the grass-roots level, Democrats didn’t manage to pick off the first two Republican-held congressional seats they contended for in the Trump era, and the prospects aren’t markedly better in the next few House races coming up: the Montana race at the end of May, and the South Carolina contest on June 20.

Their best shot at knocking Donald Trump down a peg appears to be Ossoff’s runoff against Republican Karen Handel, also scheduled for June 20. But the Democrat will be an underdog in that contest, when there won’t be a crowded field of Republicans to splinter the vote.

After that, it’ll be a further five months before the New Jersey and Virginia elections for governor, leaving some strategists and lawmakers wondering how to keep the furious rank-and-file voters engaged in fueling and funding the party’s comeback (Excerpt) Read more at nation.foxnews.com ...

And his evil ideological spawn Hitlery almost won too, as these mental dwarves carp about every damn day.

The Libs say Trump “Almost Lost”.....

The MSM can turn a victory into a near defeat and a near defeat into a victory...

Welcome to newspeak...

I’m not going to be, and I am not saying the Democrat will win. But he got 48.6%. And Handel doesn’t automatically get the votes of all 17 other candidates. Look at how Thad Cochran won.

A Democrat who had the entire Establishment media pushing for him, who spent over $8 million when his nearest competitor spent $75 thousand, who had volunteers from all over the country come to the district to get out the vote.

The Democrats threw everything they had into this election, and they still could not get a majority against a fragmented opposition.

They did it because they know they will lose a one on one race with a Republican.

Yes, they lost. They lost big time.

There is no such thing as an ugly win or a beautiful loss.
