Democrats reel from another special-election loss, and some point fingers at Pelosi
The Washington Post ^ | June 21,2017 | Mike DeBonis

Narrow losses in two House special elections had Democrats once again trading recriminations Wednesday and pondering anew whether their leaders have them on a path back to power.

Especially painful was Jon Ossoff’s three-percentage-point loss Tuesday in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District after his campaign was buoyed by more than $23 million in donations, much of it from grass-roots Democrats across the country eager to oppose President Trump.

Pelosi? Somewhat, but try your propaganda arm, they are despised.

Democrats - Don’t pay attention to the naysayers and Pelosi bashers.

You are on the right track.
Don’t change things.
You just need to get a little more obnoxious and crazy.

Stir up more hate and keep supporting the illegal aliens and muslim terrorists.

Keep pushing the homosexual/sex deviate agenda on everyone.

Keep making fun of Christians and patriots.

Come up with some more neat names like Bitter Clingers and Baskets Of Deplorables.

And get your best people like Patti Lupone and Kathy Griffin back out on the front lines grossing everyone out and threatening president Trump’s family.

Please don’t be so sarcastic. Pelosi is a hard working leader. People who oppose her only do so because she is a woman. She needs our support.

1. Narrow loss... It wasn’t
2. Once again...more like never.
3. Traded recriminations...doesn’t happen
4. Pondering anew....the script never changes. It’s an excellent one for them over time.
5. Three percent....it was over 5.
6. $23 mil....more than that, wait for final spending report not to mention soft money.
7. Grass roots....not unless you consider west coast elites “grassroots.”
