Let’s say I wanted to run for Congress in NH-1 as a MAGA candidate (I don’t, but go with it for a second).
First of all, the party has already got their guy. I’ve been told I need AT LEAST $750,000 and maybe more to play this game.
Second of all, when THEY win, we are supposed to support them. When WE win, they go right to the Democrat.
The incumbent is a vanilla gay guy (Will & Grace) engaged to his boyfriend who gets diversity points and who stands for nothing and is therefore invulnerable on policy grounds.
So, my prediction?
The GOPe will win most primary races. Their strategy - see nothing, say nothing, Biden bad - is a loser. In the critical Obama x 2, then Trump CDs in the midwest, the only thing people hate worse than Democrats is Republicans.
So, as I said, you can’t beat something with nothing, and nothing is what the GOPe is.
Things break right, R+10 and Speaker McCarthy. Things go bad, D+15.
When your enemy is printing bad money that is worth less than the day before in an election year, you get the f out of his way.
Look I don't like either prick -- Bald Pate Nate or McCarthy. But the margin is something Freepers could enhance, with some MAGA candidates in close races, if we could get back here to organizational posts and moneybam posts and breaking ugly news on the Democrats.
Great. Thanks.
Knowing you’ve studied this election in depth, it gives me great confidence, we will turn out winners. But your prediction is not the greatest of victory margins.
