“The Democratic National Committee’s drumbeat of messaging on Trump and his relationship with Russia is wearing thin with Democrats in purple states — particularly in the Midwest, where people on the ground say voters are uninterested and even turned off by the issue. The people that have to win elections are starting to get nervous, they’re not seeing a 'big blue wave' if these national leftist freaks don’t start shutting up."

Arizona was supposed to be a blue
lock and they lost by 6 points. It's
going to be 2016 all over again in
Nov. The polls will all be wrong
again and no blue wave, just a
little blue puddle..


No they were never expected to win there. Democratic national party invested zero dollars on that race, yet it was a few points instead of 20.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Oh yeah?

"Democrats, meanwhile, are ecstatic about the crowded opposition field, hoping for the first Democratic senator from the Grand Canyon State in three decades."

"There was a special election in Arizona yesterday, and the Democrats, they had already put it in the hopper as a win. They were gonna win and it was just the beginning, the next phase of this gigantic blue wave that’s gonna happen in November. Except it didn’t happen."
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

While not unhopeful, events and timing are everything. Neither side has a complete lock on that and you never know what may happen up around election time.l

I don't think that's pessimistic, just realistic.


Agreed. But I think it's the Dems to lose. Messaging is really important. They need to be for something, not just against what we have now.

Put another way, they have to quit with the message, "We are going to impeach Trump on the offense that we do not like him!" which has been the message so far.
The President is a fink.

This is just a complete lie.

No one expected the Dem to win that district that leans R by 25 points.

A "blue lock." What a joke.

Let them.

The more the snowflakes think the Democrats can't pull anything off, the more seats they'll lose. Wouldn't you rather have them screaming their idiot heads off about fraud, with a Democratic majority in the House, and maybe even in the Senate, to serve as a check on the Creature from the Oval Office?
Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER

You always say that after a loss.
When Hillary lost you said that
it was always a close race, could
have gone either way.

No, you said Trump would lose in
a landslide, like all the other Lefties
claimed.

You can try to rewrite history all you want, but It wasn't just the lefties. The Trump campaign thought so too.

Kellyanne Conway was trying to find a cable news job in the days prior to Election Day.

Steve Bannon was the only one on Team Trump who actually thought he could win in those final days.

You missed the point as usual. Before
the election you said Hillary landslide,
after the election you said, yeah, it
was close all along. You never said it
was close before the election, you
laughed and laughed at how badly
Trump would lose.

Like now, nobody thought the Dem would
win AZ. Sure they did, you just want to
rewrite it now that they lost.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.
