And yeah I've noticed that

People who are "in the middle" are like

always strongly partisan

They're basically meme radical centrists begging for attention by trying to be anti-Trump and "moderate" at the same time.

like they're really just opposing Trump "in moderation"

I think that the blue dog guys can be negotiated to our side, if we want the GOP to be a big tent party, it's only necessary.

We shouldn't seek that ending though.

No, that's not what I mean.

I mean the Blue Dogs need to be used as bargaining chips. That's their entire purpose.

Yep. Tariffs maybe we could get their support on.

Their purpose is that they're Democrats who can talk to both sides--ideologically similar to Republicans, but monetarily bound to the Democrats.

Yeah, even Elizabeth Warren loves tariffs now.

Well, we need all the seats we can get, so Trump definitely should set up a meeting with the congressional blue dog coalition and begin negotiations, this is why he was elected in the first place.

He's a dealmaker, a negotiator, and he made billions on it, he can deal with the blue dogs.

Yep.

But the important thing is the Senate

The House isn't really important right now.

The Senate is the holdup.

Yes, it is right now.

And it will be unless we can get either a filibuster-proof majority (60 votes) or we can get enough friendly Democrats to our side to accomplish cloture.

Btw which would be preferable a crappy GOP neocon candidate or a blue dog?

Neocon.

Neocon

Unless the blue dog had a massive advantage on FP

but since over 90% of Congress is BS on foreign policy that's a non-issue

Sabato's ratings are garbage.

Don't know why I've been thinking they were good.

Why do you want Blue Dogs Nuke?

Manchin is a Blue Dog and he's voted against us on everything and I think he supported the Democratic shutdown.

lol at 5% of Democrats preferring a Republican congress

haha

must be like holdovers that are still registered to the party

I don’t trust polls

@zakattack04 I don't want Manchin et al in states like West Virginia. I want them in states like New York.

Ah ok

He didn't vote for the shutdown and he supported Gorsuch (but not the nuclear option I think) but

The Blue Dogs need to revolt on Obamacare like they promised.

They've been losing voters over their support for Obamacare since they got BTFO into endangerment in 2010.
