To hear him tell it, Jon Ossoff — the Democrat vying to fill a House seat here in next Tuesday's special election — isn't even thinking about the seismic implications of what many consider the first major referendum on Donald Trump's presidency.

"I think this race is about who can deliver for this community more than it’s about national politics," Ossoff told NBC News heading into the campaign's final weekend. "There are many in the community who do have serious concerns about the direction the administration is taking us in and I’m one of them and those concerns have only grown over time. But fundamentally what people want from their representative is the kind of results that improve quality of life."

Yeah I know 'Nothing But Crap' news. Hmmm. Is he on break from stuffing envelopes? Has he once again promised to actually move back in to the district once his GF finishes her internship? Currently she needs his support so she can be successful. Or something. Sad thing is, the amount of money the dems have trucked in could swing it to them. Thanks to bloomburg again.

"[T]he first major referendum on Donald Trump's presidency..."

Come on, it must be the third or fourth or fifth, and the Dims have lost all the previous ones.

What do we tell our Facebook ‘friends’ when he loses? I say thanks to the Democrats for putting is so much money into the local economy. Had he won are the bragging rights that big for 2018? They need this one more than we do.

Tell him now he can marry the M.D. and use her for a meal ticket rather than the taxpayers like Bernie does.

“Come on, it must be the third or fourth or fifth, and the Dims have lost all the previous ones.”

You know how this works. It’s only a referendum against Trump and the winds of change are blowing and impeachment is ahead if the dims win. If they lose, well, it was no big deal.

I do believe he is NOT one of them, he can NOT vote for himself!

Girlfriend? Hah. Don’t believe it.

One look at this guy Ossoff and the gaydar gauge goes off the scale.

LOL.

Could that be why he repeatedly tells us that he’s living with his girlfriend?? To let us know, hey guys, he is a “heterosexual” male, and he’s selflessly supporting her through medical school, and what a great liberal man and he loves women, not men...........

He reminds me of Pajama Boy and Robby Mook from Hillary’s campaign.

Do we have any freepers on the ground — inside the campaign?

So where is she....not on the campaign trail, that’s for sure.

You’d think he’s want her by his side.

If he was a true man he’d marry her and then support her. Otherwise he’s saying “I’m only here until gets too tough baby!”

NBC conveniently forgets at least 3 special election races which have gone to Republicans following Trumps election; but I guess when you have a narrative to push that's more important than some bothersome facts.

If the hot chocolate, pajama boy doesn’t win, the Hollowoodies are going to be pissed. They’ve spent a fortune on that clown.
