Anyone want to edit this to be explicitly pro-Saccone?

Or got any ideas to do so?

Or pics to attach to it

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 isn't there supposed to be a Gravis poll today?

we'll see

How do you guys like this?

Conor Lamb is most susceptible to the Pro-Choice angle

You mean telling people he supports billions of dollars in financing for people's "choices"?

It's fucked man

This is the issue I have with social liberalism, they go "muh victimless crime" to excuse this dumb shit when the taxpayers have to foot the bill.

It's like they literally take "muh victimless crime" and go "AND NOT ONE STEP TOWARDS VICTIMLESS CRIME"

"Why not legalize gay marriage?" -> "YOU HAVE TO BAKE THE FUCKING CAKE"

i believe that's called the slippery slope

yep

idk why people call it a fallacy in most cases, progressivism is literally the slippery slope as an ideology

the right does this too to be fair

"we only want to ban abortion after twenty weeks"

I'm pro-life, btw

our issue is we never get our slice of the cake

bingo

that's the main problem with conservatism

The Left realizes that there's a slippery slope to banning abortion when we ban partial-birth abortion and this is the de facto only argument in favor of it.

if one ideology is 'stop' and the other is 'go' then the ideology that believes in 'go' will always get their way when they are put into power while the 'stop' ideology can only maintain the status quo

Only 10% of Leftists actually support PBA

But effectively 100% of them vote against it

The only reason that the slippery slope isn't a "fallacy" for abortion is that we actually openly say we'll ban abortion as a whole.

"On Tuesday, March 13th, voters in Pennsylvania’s 18th Congressional District will go to the polls in what has become the highest profile special election since Doug Jones beat Roy Moore in December. Gravis Marketing has released their third and final poll in this race. The Likely voter poll, conducted March 1st-5th, shows the race continuing to tighten into a toss-up. The poll uses the same demographic model as the previous two Gravis Marketing polls of the race.

The State Representative Rick Saccone now leads former assistant U.S. Attorney Connor Lamb 45%-42%. The previous poll in February had Saccone up 45%-40%, and the first poll in January showed Saccone up 46%-34%. The race has undeniably tightened as Saccone’s support has been frozen in the 45%-46% range while Lamb’s support has climbed from 34% to 42%. While Saccone remains the favorite to win this race, there is a clear path to victory for Lamb. 13% of likely voters remain undecided.

Saccone is currently pulling 4% of Clinton voters while Lamb is taking 13.1% of Trump voters. Saccone, however, takes 16% of Democrat compared to Lamb’s 12.3% of Republicans. Lamb holds a 46%-27% lead over independent voters.

Donald Trump’s approval rating has taken a slight hit in the district over the three polls showing only a slight trend downward from 54%-39% in January to 49%-42% in the first week of March. Governor Wolf has remained stable and currently sits at 33%-47% in the district. Senator Casey’s numbers have also remained static and are currently at 33%-38%."

This trend has continued I'm told since the map was made

@Den Yeah, though those Rep voters would still be susceptible to candidates like Lamb

will the Democrats be able to field more candidates like Lamb for November ?

Some, probably

hopefully we'll field our fair share as well

I really don't think it will matter if they field someone like Lamb in the Midterms. I think Lamb might win because it's going to be very low turnout.

To a point of course.

@Den the thing is, there seems to be a lot of attention on this race

I expect turnout to be higher than typical special elections, at the very least

It's just such a small percentage of people are going to vote the Radicalized Democrats I think are going to make up a big chunk of them.
