Republican, Marsha Blackburn wins the U.S. Senate primary copying the recent Georgia wipe out of Democrats. The Republicans, across the board, are amassing hundreds of thousands of votes more then Democrats. The Democrat vote turn out was dismal to say the least. Marsha Blackburn will be elected the next Senator of Tennessee
Texas, Florida, Georgia & now Tennessee will be "bright red" come election day in November, 2018.
Blue Dog Democrats who don’t realize how much the party and America has changed. Do these folks have any opinion on the Kenyan Usurper?
It’s crucial that we get Marsha elected. She has supported President Trump from the start.
Anyone who wants to build or renovate anything in cities like New York or Chicago, cities run by iron fisted political machines, have to learn to cultivate relationships with the right politicians.
Or you can choose not to. Good luck getting so much as a building permit for your kid’s dollhouse.
Its just the way it is in the Real World, and I am keeping my high horse in the barn.
“The only reason Democrats have a shot in Tennessee is Bredesen himself,” said Steven Law, the president of American Crossroads, a conservative group. “Voters fondly remember his tenure as governor and he’s proven himself to be a nimble and affable politician.”
One top Senate GOP strategist, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to candidly discuss strategy, said that Blackburn needs to make the race a choice between someone who will enthusiastically support Trump’s agenda and someone who will constantly be torn between Trump and his Democratic bosses in Washington.
I’m afraid that your TN neighbours are about 85% right with regards to Republican politicians, at least on the national level, including W. Unfortunately, on the national level they are 99.95% wrong about the Democrats.
I wonder if they voted for Reagan in ‘84.
“Bredesen is popular even with Republicans, and white rural voters may like him because he is a man”
Regardless of the tripe coming out of Democrats mouths of being independent and will work for their constituents it’s bull$hit. You need look no further than the Obamacare and Tax relief votes. 100% lockstep voting by the Rat Party. These Clowns are Schmucky and Pelosi’s bitches PERIOD. THERE IS NO DIVERSITY OF THOUGHT / VOTE IN THE RAT PARTY. (how ironic)
That is the point that should be driven home all campaign season.
Get strategic and look at the overall primary voting between Blackburn & Bredesen, it overall favors Blackburn by some 300,000 votes plus. The game is over...Blackburn will win the Senate seat.
Tennessee will elect another democrat-loving RINO as governor in November. That is unless his democrat buddy wins. What in the hell is wrong with Tennessee? As far as protecting Confederate monuments Lee will do absolutely nothing. If Marsha Blackburn loses to the democrat ex governor for the US senate, Tennessee will have officially went over to the dark side.
GOP: roughly 725,000 votes cast
DEM: roughly 375,000 votes cast
My prediction: Florida, Texas, Georgia, Tennessee.....100% for Trump & Trumpsters!!!
Yes....the Democrat Party voter turn out in Tennessee was dismal at best. Be reminded that just about every Pundit & Pollster said Marsha was in for the race of her life in the Republican primary. I would call her 300,000 plus votes, the race of her life.
And...comparing Ms. Blackburn’s vote against her Democrat Opponents vote (Bredeson) Ms. Blackburn will easily defeat him come November 6, 2018. The Pundits & Pollsters are “Adrift At Sea”...they do not have a clue!!!
Among at least a dozen folks I’ve had the occasion to mention the previous administration to, NONE of them would say “Obama,” and most, at least 8 said plain as day “the ni**er president”.
My closest neighbor and shooting buddy (we both have small ranges on our properties) only ever says “the Kenyan.”
Buddy of mine - now deceased - used to do financial planning/CPA work up north of me, in Franklin, and of the hundreds of people HE knew, he said he mostly heard “the ni**er president” too. Until buying property about 90 minutes south of there, I’d thought he might’ve been exaggerating.
Funny, growing up between Ohio and Florida, with 119 blood relatives who fought for the Union in the mid-century unpleasantries, it wasn’t until I went back up north that I realized institutionalized/cultural racism ran deeper there than in the south. My experience anyway.
“The north” had been forced to accept freed men into the workforce by generations of government after the war and the welfare enclaves and crime taking over the cities year after year really depleted their sense of christian charity.
A lot like the previous administration forced unacculturated third world shithole denizens into every nook and cranny and semi-homogenous neighborhood in the country while whites, blacks, asians, hispanics - taxpaying CITIZENS - were forced to take a back seat for school, housing, hiring, gov’t support, etc. while the slavering section eight hordes came out after dark to unspeakable crimes against their persons, wives, daughters, and shat in the streets like they were still in Bumf**kistan.
But we, Americans, were told we were “better than that” and just accepted the inexorable decline and invasion forces of islam with our heads bowed.
One of these days I suspect to hear my neighbors complaining about “the raghead president.”
Somewhere close, or ON, my deathbed.
I know, it makes me sick. You should see Slick Bill Lee’s ads, so full of phony piety you think he’s running for pastor-in-chief. He’s a con artist.
Diane Black made a grievous error in largely resting on her laurels and thinking her record would speak for itself against two rich crypto-Democrat buffoons. She did put out some great ads roasting them both for supporting Democrats, but it wasn’t enough. Frankly, had I known she was going to run such a weak campaign, I’d have urged we recruit someone else to run (perhaps have had Marsha Blackburn and Black switch races — Black is more situated to DC, anyhow).
The fake Republicans running for Governor took an old page out of the Southern Democrat playbook — pretend to be Conservative to fool the rubes at election time.
I’ll vote for Blackburn, who I do expect to win. Slick Bill Lee can go get some Democrats to vote for his lying ass. I don’t vote for charlatans. If his buddy that he supported with $$, Karl “Marx” Dean does win the Governorship, he’s gonna be badly hamstrung. Unlike with Congress and many other states, a Governor can have his agenda overridden by simple majority vote in the legislature. Dean would be a figurehead while the supermajority GOP legislature is in almost complete control of the agenda. Lee could inflict a lot more damage to the party as a Republican than Dean could as a Democrat.
That was only if Corker or his stand-in who dropped out, ex-Rep. Stephen Fincher, had stayed in. She had clear sailing without either.
