You know, I wish these groups that filed lawsuits to fix gerrymandering in PA would do the same in Massachusetts and Connecticut.
Using Liberallogic (TM) as it was applied in PA :
Connecticut was a 54 - 40 Clinton win yet there are zero Rs representing Conn. in the US House. With a total of 5 seats, shouldn’t the Rs get at least 2 seats?
Mass. was a 60 - 32 split for Clinton yet there are zero Rs representing Mass. in the House. With a total of 9 seats in Mass, shouldn’t the Rs get +3 Reps to be fair?
I think the liberals are going to go all in for the House this year ... I doubt they’ll fund their Senate races ... it seems like the House or bust for the Dems.
I really hope the idiots in the GOP get their act together since we have a lot of opportunities to offset the black robe tyrant induced losses by picking up seats in places like Minnesota.
The Dems are going to use their 2006 textbook to win back the House (the Lamb race makes that crystal clear). The GOP has to get these challengers on the record “dissing their masters” in the Dem party and play the heck out of their quotes in the bluer “progressive” (regressive) parts of their districts ... cause chaos on their side in the primaries and drag the angst out until Election Day.
Point blank ask the self-described “progressives” if they don’t mind the Democratic Party becoming more Conservative and supporting parts of the Trump platform. A message/strategy like that could have kicked enough votes out of the Lamb column last week.
That’s a far better strategy than the idiotic Rove-esque “strategry” that will allow the Dems to lie their way into holding the House while the Rs play a prevent style defense.
I agree. Republicans should fight the blue states that are misrepresented. However, liberals use the race issues as a fighting mechanism which gets judges attention. Not having the right amount of seats isn’t very glamorous.
By the way, I truly believe that the Republicans like being in the minority. I believe they will be thrilled to lose in November. First of all, they still make the same money even if they get kicked off committees. I kid you not, if they make 15K for being on a committee, they get that for LIFE regardless if they are on it ever again after 1 year. That is why so many Congressmen make more then 180K. They get 15K per committee and other monetary benefits that cannot be taken away once they get it. Sick huh?
