We get a lot of Manchin TV commercials here in SW Pennsylvania and if those represent the type of politician Manchin is (surely they do; he approved them), then he’s as much of a hate-filled lying cockroach as any Democrat is.
Morrissey is far from the perfect candidate, but Manchin’s faux-moderate pose is highly annoying and I hope he goes down in flames on Tuesday along with Heitkamp, Donnelly, Tester, Clare the Cadaver, Nelson, the dyke from Arizona, etc. Not ONE of them has a single positive thing to run on, and it shows.
Now if only we in PA could get rid of our empty suit Senator with the room temperature IQ, but that’s a very long shot.
GOP hasn’t bothered to even take the field for the Senate States in the upper midwest...
Two things are KILLING the GOP in the senate races up here..
1) GOP Messaging is ALL WRONG!.. If your only message is Democrat is bad and pelosi clone.. YOU WILL LOSE EVERY TIME IN THESE STATES.... To win these states you need to give folks a reason to vote for you, not simply call the other guy names.... That is fine to be PART of your message to keep your base motivated, but it WON’T attract 1 person outside of it, and sadly that’s the only message the GOP has bothered to run up here, when they bother to spend any money at all. Its a dog that won’t hunt here... Trump showed you how to win here, and the GOP has just ignored it... PA18 and OH12 were not FLUKES! They are exactly what will happen every time up here when you just run with a message that is nothing more than Democrat is bad...>
2) The GOP never bothered, honestly to take the field up here... They continued on the ROVE nonsensical path of simply dividing up the states, conceding most of them and just fighting for a small number, unlike Trump who fought EVERYWHERE...
Casey would he handily defeated if the GOP would fix its messaging and stop running campaigns up here, like they are down in Alabama and expecting a win... Fix the MEssaging and actually FIGHT for the it and you will win...
The GOP should have EASILY taken 2 seats in the upper midwest this cycle, but instead, didn’t bother to even try.
