LS, count me among those who not only greatly respect you, but recommend and gift your books.
That said, I suspect you have been misled by the Establican blizzard of propaganda targeting Sethi and may wish to do more research. (DailyRollCall.com and TennesseeStar.com are good places to start. Hagerty commercials are a good place to see Goebbels’ “big lie” principle at work.)
Grassroot conservatives within Tennessee have extensively vetted both Hagerty and Sethi. Consequently, Tennessee grassroots conservatives overwhelmingly support Sethi.
Honestly, Sethi was not my first choice and there are others running who have greater conservative bona fides. That said, for better or for worse, this is essentially a race between known Establican Hagerty and hope-he-votes-like-he-says-he-will Sethi.
Maybe, and I certainly don’t claim to have much expertise on this race. But Hagerty won, right?
Let’s not waste more time. I think we have a lot of “soft” Trumpers in there, but he can hardly be worse than Lamar. I’m not happy about McSally, either, but McCarthy (whom I voted for would have lost huge.
If we have any hope of getting ANY conservative on the court, we must hold the senate. Again, not saying Hagerty would be fully supportive of someone like Barrett (if she’s the nominee and if Buzzi ever croaks), but we can’t lose ANY seat besides McSally and Gardner, because then Minion, MurCowSki can flip the vote.
