OR
They coudn’t stand Gillespie
Or
They got disillusioned with Trump because of all the BS on the MSM
INfO to ponder: We won a special congressional seat election by a landslide in Utah, last night, the seat that was vacated recently by Jason Chaffeetz. we also hve a special Senate election coming up on December 12, 2017 in the state of Alabama.
At the moment, Judge Roy Moore has a massive lead of aboptu eighteen points over his Democrat rival. I am fairly certain the POTUS, Trump will head to Alabama where he personally support and endorse Judge More for that seat.
So....in the big picture we have won five straight Congress elections and Judge Moore will be the sixth, victory, hopefully.. Democrats = Zero “Congress” Wins!!!
Bottom Line Impact” The two elections in NJ & VA were “nice” wins for the Democrats...but...no surprise....Trump still rules the roost. Had Gillespie been able to win, he would have devastated the entire Democrat party. Too bad he listened to, and followed the badly flawed leadership advice and council, of deadbeat, failures, Mitch McConnell and G W Bush!!!
Lower turnout for the dems was probably black voters who don’t turn out in non presidentials
Don’t know about the 700,000 less GOP
I wonder if any have given reasons
I think the majority of these 700,000 were “Trump” supporters that just stayed home and sat on their hands. In retrospect, Ed Gillespie was not-too-bright in avoiding Donald J. Trump!!! I mean, come on, using that loser GW Bush....ya gotta be kidding me.
Actually the gal that was the GOP Governor candidate in New Jersey was a “Never Trump” girl, too. She was dead-in-the-water, politically before the first vote in New Jersey was cast. Two idiots joining with Karl Rove, Mitch McConnell, and GW Bush!! Go figure?
You said, “Kelli Ward is a ‘RINO’” Excuse me if I misunderstood. Ward was a great candidate.
I thought the McCain reference was all the way back to 2010 and the Rino challenger was Hayworth. This was me continuing a train of thought from another thread.
Is someone actually blaming “conservative purists” for Kelli Ward’s defeat?
You are the one bitching Redleg.
Your supercilious, censure means nothing. You can complain all you want but we owe nothing to you and whatever compromised concoctions you are drinking. Enough of your Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney Rino rationalizations!
Rather than insult us, and I understand you are frustrated and fearful, bless your heart, you should face the new truth. There is something new here. We are not going back to your way of thinking ever again. And there are enough of us to matter.
There was a question mark at the end of my statement.
You are a blithering idiot, sir. To connect me to that rogues’ gallery of members of the DC Uni-Party points out your paranoia.
Why don’t you lick your wounds and then help us either wrest control of the remnants of Republican Party from the establishment pukes and knock them out in the primaries, or just shut up! You failed in the primaries, so you sat on your hands and bitched. Tango Sierra!
You said, “...help us either wrest control of the remnants of Republican Party from the establishment pukes and knock them out in the primaries, or just shut up!”
Well perhaps you are growing into some sense now. It looks like we agree that the only option is to remove the Rinos through the primary process.
Put your actions where you hankie is. I have been this way all along, while you and McCain were busy obstructing for your own self aggrandizement. This exchange is over. Out!
The Duke of Redleg said, “This exchange is over!”
Watch out there Your Grace, You’re gonna pull somethin’. But I am proud of you for trying to use a big word like “self-aggrandizement”. It was not the right word, but at least you are trying.
Are you sure that you really are “Out?” Because if you want to insult me again, I promise that I will let that be the last word. My dear mother, rest in peace, taught me that some people have to have the last word and “You’ve got to just let them.” So go ahead. I will be even more proud of you (as if that were possible) if you can incorporate into your insult the word “obstreperous.” (How about “patronizing?”)
