    You never know. But you guys seem to need the confidence-boost, so I'm happy for ya.
    Losing doesn't give you a lot of confidence, does it?

    In deep red areas?

    Never expected to win yesterday. Would have loved to pull off the upset, but call me when the special election is in Massachusetts.

    I said forever that the Dems shouldn't have spent money there. But they're desperate.

    As to the 1st part, I do think the GOP is stupid in general.

    You get credit for stating publicly what most elected democrats won't. The Deplorables are running the country because liberal democrats refuse to listen to them about what matters, to them.

    It's exactly that simple.

    Stop making this bigger than it is. Democrats were dumb to run a liberal in a district Republicans usually win by 30%, and even dumber to spend that kind of money there. And that's it.

    Do Democrats need to hone their message? Of course, but let's not pretend that the GOP has much coherent going on these days.

    Don't forget Nancy Pelosi. The Dems had a chance to get rid of their mouth, and what did they do? They kept the senile excuse. I almost peed my pants when the douche spoke right after Ryan gave his heartfelt and compassionate remarks .

    Why would a political party break the bank to almost win? Have they grown so accustomed to losing that coming within 6% is a victory for them?

    This is why you are almost always wrong in your predictions. You look at this data and make no further analysis.

    Yes Tom Price did win by that margin. But I defy you to name his opponent. His opponent had zero dollars.

    This was an unmitigated disaster for the democrat party. You can keep your head in the sand like you did after November but you will continue to not learn valuable lessons

    Now for me this election should be seen as a message to Ryan and McCuntell

    I seem to recall a special election in Massachusetts for Teddy Kennedy's seat that a republican won. Just sayin.

    The bolded is hilarious.

    Republicans have won that seat for MANY years, by wide margins. There is a reason that Dems haven't put much money there until now. Why they did this time is beyond me, but they're desperate.

    "Unmitigated disaster" is pure partisan hackery, though. It sounds like something Pelosi would say.

    Jobs and the economy never go out style, politically.

    The problem for liberal democrats is they want to talk about climate change, free stuff, getting men to piss in the women's room and etc absurdities, instead of putting people back to work. Or when they do talk about putting them to work, they're forced to square the circle of advocating higher taxes to pay for their social programs; or in the case of climate change, advocating energy policy that hits the working class in their pocket books.

    That formula just doesn't work outside of the blue precincts. It isn't rocket science.
