No I don’t have it backwards. The GOPe is running a stupid campaign that is going to lose them the house.
If they don’t realize they need those non traditional MAGA and cross over voters to win this fall and start talking to them and giving them a reason to show up... expect the GOP to lose the house.. period.
If the ONLY people they talking to is your reliable base,, they will get beat by dem turnout which is highly motivated in a lot of purple and pink districts.
PA18 should have finally forced the GOP to realize this... obviously it did not.
I live in PA 18 and we had a terrible candidate when there was a tremendous female candidate, State Senator Kim Ward, that the party passed over. Us peons never got a chance to vote, and the fat assed party bosses picked one of their own, Rick Saccone, a candidate with as much magnetism as chuck schumer.
The demonRATs picked a young, smart telegenic fraud that promised he would work 'across the aisle'. So far, he has voted the party line 96% of the time.
I voted for him, but it left a bad taste, kinda like voting for mittens in 2012.
In the upcoming elections we will elect a good pubbie in my 'new' district but the demonRAT controlled courts, gerrymandered PA18 and several other districts out of existence.
The demonRATs look to pick up 2-4 congresscritters in PA because of the crooked courts.
I’m on the same page as you Jay. Running a STOOPID campaign. I would also argue that the GOPe is running a terrible ground game strategy; which is basically nothing.
