The GOP isn’t even putting up challengers. They may be trying to lose like they did in Alabama so they don’t have to do the impeachment themselves.

Like employees who self terminate, this is just term limits and an acknowledgement that the public is smattering up.

Painful but winning. Now the voters have to do their part. Trump got us this far almost entirely alone. Time for us to step up. Send donations to the RNC today.

“The GOP isn’t even putting up challengers. They may be trying to lose like they did in Alabama so they don’t have to do the impeachment themselves.”

Almost seems like Republicans believe they are going to lose the house so rather than fight, they will take their campaign contributions and retire. This way their name isn’t on record.

Almost like what Bart Stupak did.

Part of it is they don’t want their names and their families dragged through the mud by unscrupulous, agenda-mad media.

One more theory: Those who aren’t running are compromised. They have been told retire or have your crimes exposed.

Rats would need to gain 18 Senate seats to convict and remove without GOP votes. There aren’t even that many GOP seats up.

And there is an ND challenger, State Senator Tom Campbell.

I’d prefer someone like Cramer who’s won statewide before but Campbell will do if no one else is interested. In a small state like ND running a State Senator is ok, retail politics is key there.

The filthy commie Heidiheit*unt is eminently beatable, ND is a heavily GOP state (The President stumping for Campbell would do wonders and he needs to not praise the woman in any way) and in a midterm the turnout on the reservations shouldn’t be as high as it was when she stole the election in 2012. People on this thread need to get a grip with the chicken little. A disappointingly small gain is on the table, a rat Senate is not. Not unless Trump is super unpopular, in which case we’re effed and it doesn’t matter much what candidates we run.
