But let's not press the point. Let them run an inferior slate while we run young, energized, dedicated candidates. And then, this November, in the word(s) of my favorite 95 year old acquaintance........POW!!

The GOP spent MILLIONS supporting Saccone. Also in Alabama. Even their deep pockets will feel the sting if they keep up this level of funding for losing candidates.

With it's "globalist" tentacles spreading out and crushing as many of the far-right-wing "patriots" as possible.

Sad thing is, you actually hear this exact kind of shit from The Talking Neck (Hannity) on any given night.

Saccone got the majority of legitimate votes, but hundreds of fake voters bused in from Philadelphia voted for Lamb.

but you forgot that it will be "hundreds of fake African American voters bused in from Philadelphia"

You know the GOP will never avoid using racism when there's a chance to fan the flames of racism.

It just brings into stark contrast the fact that the district went for trump +20 and as a result of trump, they lost. So instead of losing the BLOOD RED district by 26 (or whatever the polls were showing), they lost it by 20.
