like....it's still too early

who knows how many shootings and bombings will happen before November for them to capitalize on

Nothing matters til October

But this shows how elastic the American electorate really is

>yfw it's +20 Republican on November 5

But yeah,

We'd win if the election was held today

@Den I think you should write an op-ed about the fact that you're friend tried to get Saccone to properly campaign, only to be dismissed, later leading to Saccone's loss

(voter fraud or not)

(and this is for the redstorm blog)

My ruling on the spending bill:

Veto worthy

OR

Trump should at least use signing statements to gut the bill to the extent it is necessary.

Yeah, it's too big to fix

Yeah, the funding for the Wall is insufficient due to its being bundled with overall border security funds.

If it were just $1.6B for a wall outright it would be OK

But it's $1.6B for everything

Hmm

I don't know much about the PA Gov race.

Ask him the Rep Steve King question

Re-upping. The big Ryanesque spending bill isn't as bad as I thought last night. It's worse. Forbids hiring more ICE agents. Limits detention beds, making "catch & release" more likely. Call 202 456-1111 if you want to urge Trump to veto

Make sure to advise the candidate on how to campaign, how Saccone lost, etc

Perhaps ask if he intends to rally potential Amish voters

Saccone was a lazy candidate that was anti union in Pennsylvania. I dont know why the party put up such a bad candidate

@Den yeah, emphasize the fact that Saccone ignored our advice and LOST

that's the most important thing...oh, and TELL HIM TO TELL EVERY OTHER R POLITICIAN HE KNOWS THAT THEY SHOULD NOT CAMPAIGN LIKE SACCONE

The issue is the Rs don't flood the fields where they should

They should've had a good electable candidate over in IL-3, we got a neo-nazi.

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 Even worse, it actually influences America's foreign policy in a negative direction with regard to Russia; not a single Nay from the Democrats!

so basically

1. Talk about how Saccone ignored our advice and lost, then emphasize that he shouldn't do it that way, and that he should tell all the other GOP politicians he knows to NOT campaign that way

2. The 'Steve King' question (not sure what this is

3. Rallying Amish voters

4. the importance of Immigration as an issue to GOP voters

These people are so stupid

This will not get them reelected

Target abortion actually

The Steve King question is "Can you restore your civilization with someone else's babies?" Their answer to that lets you know if they actually want to put America First.

They should run on a balanced budget amendment to be honest

This is what got a lot of the current members of congress elected on the anti-obama wave in 2010, balancing the budget, stopping the national debt.

IMO other than job creation and to a lesser extent budgetary balance, Republicans should stay silent on the state level.

Social issues take a higher precedent, especially when they can integrate with economic issues.
