The GOP is ow totally i the open with its white supremacist agenda and will run on it. They believe that fear and loathing and catering to our worst instincts is the way to win in November. And they I am sure will welcome the Russians to create all the mayhem they want. Add to that rigging the vote we can now see it is a "pulling out all stops" illegal and otherwise is on the table.
Our best hope is to get out the vote. Any Democrat who shirks that duty is adding them. Even with all hands on deck we are facing a party that is planning for the kill and we must all realize that.
Here in Colorado the GOP is going to go batshit ballistic against someone like Polis. You can feel the vicious hatred and vile coming to of the GOP. They are already trying to paint Rep Polis as a communist who will California radicalize Colorado. We can already see millions of dark dollars coming into the state.
And we can see the open racist rearing its ugly head like a "badge of honor and even celebrations".

So, what else do they have? Racism, bigotry, xenophobia, and Nancy Pelosi. That's it.

Republican ads are getting personal in the fight for the House majority.

Dramatized police dispatch calls of a DUI arrest. Allegations of sexual harassment. Court filings reviewing failed business investments.
Those are attacks leveled against Democratic congressional candidates in a new Republican ad campaign in recent days part of a growing effort to personalize the midterm elections and disqualify individual Democratic hopefuls early in a bid to save the Republican House majority.
