    Well one thing that won't stop is the Democrats complaining about money in elections even though they can't buy one. Also, I predict the calls for impeachment will start slowing down because the congressional Democrats will start seeing that it will hurt them.

    GA, it matters not what % Dems lost by. If the Democratic Party party is going to take over the House they'll HAVE to win in Republican districts, so far it's 0 fer 4.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    What he neglects to tell you is that district was democrat for DECADES with no republican ever winning. In 2010 Mulvaney wrenched that seat from a democrat. That was not a republican district it was a democrat district that the republicans took and reaffirmed it yesterday.

    What a person wins by is how losers try and justify losing, this aint horseshoes, theres one winner and one loser.

    A 4% loss is HUGE considering he had donors from all over the country pouring money into this campaign and 7200 democrat donors from california alone. That was a huge victory for the GOP

    I was talking about the Georgia race, not the SC race to replace Mulvaney. Maybe make sure you're on the right topic before you post.

    Ok but it doesnt matter, everything I said still stands this aint horseshoes, you win or you lose. The amount of money poured into Ossof was astounding and unprecedented, they couldnt buy it.

    They lost the SC election wrested it from democrats who had it 100 yrs. What does that say about democrat popularity ? It all breaks down to win or lose

    Everyone rails on Trumps popularity and tell us how wildly loved Obama is. Then how did obama lose the house the senate and the Presidency. Oh I forgot the russians did it.

    The Democrats went all in on this one. They had money pouring in from all over the country. They thought that they had this one. It was going to be a repudiation of Trump and the GOP.

    Now they are going to spin it as something else.

    No, it's not horseshoes, it's politics. Politics goes a lot deeper than just win or lose.
