I spotted only two red Trump hats in the room.

Oh, so you spotted "only" two Trump hats.

Well, let's take a guess on how many Hillary hats you "spotted" at Ossoff's rally.

Let me take a guess... maybe... ,,,ZERO? .

When will the MSM figure out Trump is an asset and not a liability?

I think they would prefer mass suicide to making that admission.

AFTERMATH of Georgia/sixth:

Dems must handed out mega-doses of speed to their canvassers. Story is Georgians did not like super-aggressive Dems knocking on their doors.

In many cases, the super-charged Dems actually called on their kids———millenials who lived in the basement of their parents homes.

Parents were outraged that these Dems thought their children did not think like they did.

It got ugly——police were killed to get the Dems off the property.

The Ossoff ground gane did not go well.

Love the sign someone was holding outside a polling station reading “Get your Ossoff my lawn!”.

What’s with the novelette?

1) The MSM no longer sway opinion spewing lies through a fire hose
2) Nobody is buying MSM conspiracies
3) Trump supporters are resolved and growing in light of the attacks
4) People are taking note of Trump’s winning
5) This had nothing to do with the boy candidate

There. How’s that?

After spending 50-some ears, here in the South. I can tell you that one thing that a southerner don’t need is some girly-lookin’ Pee Wee Herman’ impersonator wanting to become their leader.

As darkness has crept across this planet,” he assured his supporters, they “have provided a beacon of hope for people in Georgia and for people around the world.”

By this and other comments, Ossoff and his supporters have shown that they are full of crap and they need to look somewhere outside of politics to find their meaning in life.

This election was centered on Trump and not the two candidates. The democrats made it a referendum on Trump. Trump took that district by only 1-1/2 percentage points in the presidential election. The Republican just won that district by 6%. Trumps popularity is increasing despite what the media is trying to do to him. Trump has kept his base and it expanding!

This was Trumps election and he won!

Dems

You lose because you are emotionally hysteric petulent children who lust for poltical power for the sake of power. You have no agenda, no idea and no solutions.

The brain of the Democrat party had died, the body of the party is still twitching.

As long as the only things they have to offered to voters is whiny hysterics and mindless hate at anyone who disagrees, they will be an irrelevant fringe poltical party.

People worry about their future, their kids future and the direction of the country. They not invested in the latest PC fad or new emotional based Leftist poltical dogma that so fascinates the Democrats these days

The fact that Ossoff looked like the infamous Pajama Boy from the Obamacare publicity campaign of late 2009 didn't help things, either.

What’s important is that Democrats from top to bottom are lost and have no clue how to recover.

The leftist radicals don’t care, they just want chaos.

Between the lost and the don’t cares, thing look bad for the Democrats going forward and that’s good for American.

By the way, from the Whitehouse today: 6.5 million Americans paid $3 billion in fines because the Affordable Care Act isn’t affordable.

Here’s a clue - educated, thoughtful people weren’t buying the liberal garbage you’re selling.

time-honored leftist chant: “This is what democracy looks like!”

No.... this is what a Representative Republic looks like.

And I did not bother the read the article, as per standard FR practice.

The Republican just won that district by 6%

Handel final tally (R) 51.9%

Ossoff final tally (D) 48.1%

Handel by 3.8%.

Solid win.
