The democrats outspent the Republicans 5-1. Come now. Why if I am running the GOP would I spend money on a lackluster candidate in a SPECIAL election in a district that likely won’t exist? And if it does, then there will be a do-over in 8 short months.

Lamb giving an acceptance speech right now, and although media touted as moderate, all he’s doing is praising unions. So he is 100 percent Nancy’s.

Keep making excuses. the left is in full hate mode and so are anti Trump republicans ..the hate POTUS and are BIG TIME motivated.

The GOP-e wants POTUS agenda to lose just as much as the left.

You'd have to ask the idiots running the show why they spent so much on a seat that's going away.

Yes, Lamb raised $3.9 million, and spent $3.1 million

Sure, Saccone raised $600,000, spent $615,000

However, you're ignoring something very, very important.

Lamb had around $2.6 million of outside funds spent on him.

The GOP brought in and spent $10.7 million on Saccone.

The GOP cannot bring in $10 million for every one of the 100+ races that are more competitive than PA-18. Races for seats that will exist next year. Races that will decide whether the Democrats take the House.

People in the GOP should be fired for that tonight. But they won't be fired. They'll blame Saccone, Miller, the Democrats, the weather, etc.
