I would like to know why the RNC did not have national ads on this race. They could have exceeded Scott Brown’s impact on public opinion. They would have had an uphill fight, but they may have changed some of the “Jews for Hitler” mindset.

My parents live in District 19. It was drawn specifically to create a heavily Jewish and Democratic district (by a Republican legislature, to make sure the Dems were concentrated). The demographics are NOT in our favor there, and it would take Moses himself to change the opinions of my parent's neighbors.

The reason the GOP did not spend alot on this one is that there are many Dems down there with deep pockets, and Lynch didn't stand a chance in said district, which is effectively an "ethnic" district.

We knocked 12.3% off of Wexler’s last race, and still lost by 11%, or 7.5% if you got every third party vote. How much more could we have upended this huge RAT stronghold. Like I mentioned above would $100,000 have turned 1 more percent. Would $500,000 have turned 2 more percent.

Would $10,000,000 have done it or just gotten us within 5 to 8%?

At some point, you also have to be strategic - and that includes with dollars and ad buys - which are not infinitely available.

I think FL conservatives are doing a pretty DARN good job when it comes to Rubio - we could take a lesson from their playbook!
