Well she’s got McConnell on her side and he’s an expert at that sort of thing. Same with Graham. They play a dirty campaign game and have it down pat which is why they keep getting re-elected.
Of course the uniparty and GOPe will attempt to split the vote to save her...
We will see how this goes down.
This is exactly how Murkowski in Alaska won 6 years ago.
Not just republicans splitting the vote in the primary, democrats will vote for her in the election.
Seven candidates running for the nomination last I checked.
It is thee oldest trick in politics.
Their plan is to diminish the power of a Trump endorsement.
Earlier this week the Trump-endorsed candidate lost in Texas.
This coming Tuesday in Ohio, another Trump-endorsed candidate is up for election.
Their plan goes like this, if they can cause the Trump-endorsed candidate in Ohio to lose, then they can get the narrative going that Trump’s endorsement is meaning less and less with Republicans.
So when it comes to endorsing an opponent to Cheney, the others won’t drop out when Trump chooses just one.
Then Liz can ride up the middle like Romney.
Whatever it takes to protect one of their own AND prevent an Establishment defeat.
Remember, their narrative is that ONLY their type can win elections. That’s the battle we’re in.
Withdraw from the race b!**h!!! Oh, wait, that will never happen because it was never about the good of the party.
She’s just one of 435 so it doesn’t matter that much.
Democrats will vote for her, they now a Rat won’t win in Wyoming anyway, so they’re willing to vote for her just to stick it to Trump supporters.
Let’s say the anti-Cheney vote is the 70% who voted for Trump. After a Trump endorsement how is that gonna be split in such a way that she wins?
Yep. Cheney’s primary has NO RUNOFF. She doesn’t need a majority of the votes. Whichever candidate in the primary gets a PLURALITY of the votes wins the primary.
VOTE FOR & SUPPORT ONLY TRUMP’S VETTED & RECOMMENDED CHALLENGER - whoever that ends up being!
PING
Article, and # 10.
Calm down! The field will thin itself out. And if she somehow survives the primary there’s always the democrat.
That happened in California in 1986 when 11 conservatives and one liberal ran for the GOP Senate nomination to take on an unpopular and vulnerable Democrat incumbent. The liberal, Ed Zschau (rhymes, appropriately, with Mao) won the GOP nomination with 37% of the vote because the other candidates split up the conservative votes. Many conservatives then went fishing on Election Day and the Democrat went on to a narrow win.
The traitor is toast. Get used to it. Look at the poll numbers.
Nothing would satisfy me more than to see this “Pelosi Republican” go down in flames.
This is going to happen. The GOP will find someone that claims to be anti-Cheney but really is there just to split the vote.
The demos/libs will throw down money behind a disrupter candidate to help Liz out. They are very good at playing the game.
