provided, of course, the Republicans get sensible candidates.

The RNC absolutely torpedoed two good candidates ... Harris in GFL, and Graf in AZ. Before we go into any more elections, we had better clean out the RNC.

BTW, Bush was very good at dealing with the opposition as a Governor. Soooo.....?

... he was dealing with the remnants of the old Solid South conservative democrats here in Texas, not the San Fran variety controlling Washington.

I think you deal with them with garlic and a cross, not compromise

Harris wasn't a good candidate and was up against a smooth Dim. (On election day, I saw her out on a freeway, waving signs. Sad.) And Graf was running on border issues in a very liberal district. The RCCC intervening hurt him but I'm not sure it defeated him. Boy, are those Graf supporters mad at the RNC. But the perps have left the RCCC.

Not sure either was ever electable unless we were having a very good year.
