Oh great, because what we really need is another special election

that special election would probably be on November 6

Note to aspiring politicians:

Button I think what you meant to say was

Don't appoint congressmen to your cabinet

"Oh great, another election to lose"

^

Followed by FLanon paragraphing how this is a strategy discord and we can't talk about being defeated at all

Only good stuff here :)

we've been winning most of them though....

:D

^being this naive

Do you consider AZ-08 a win?

Or PA-18?

we won in AZ-08

that's a simple fact

Technically

Debbie Lesko is the congresswoman

not Hiral Tipirneni

But if that trend was applied nationally, we'd lose 60 seats

but that trend won't apply nationally

because the factors that caused that trend won't be present for the general

So yes technically you are right, but realistically it wasn't

Yes it will

you gotta see things past the surface level

The trend has been consistent

The technical win is mostly meaningless, it's just one seat

have you seen the swings @Deleted User

enormous,

twenty-digit

dem waves

No please...

**TWENTY**

And then everyone goes and blames it on X factors instead of just accepting t was a loss

I'm still so bummed about Darrell Issa...

He was such a strong Representative.

>blames it on X factors

they don't happen by magic....

>muh 20 point swings that will always happen because Dems r da best and Drumpf sux

Am I wrong that we shouldn't go in with the mindset that we've already lost when we're trying to win?

The thing is if we decide it's all futile anyways, then it demotivates and depresses our effort, it doesn't rally us to work as hard as possible. The reason I have to keep re-iterating it is because you guys don't seem to get it or simply don't care.

And if you don't care, why be here?
