I continue to be amaze how democratic candidates miss one opportunity after another.

TV commercials should be airing all over America attacking the dark money flowing into GOP PACs that question where the funds are coming from. If nothing to hide then why do republicans want to hide donors? Why is the trump admin helping to shield the dark money sources. The ad can imply Russian and Chinese involvement and then ask why trump and GOP continue to put our elections at risk.

30 second ads that can put GOP on the defense all across our country....so easy to make happen and yet we don't see it being done.

1. Where would those ads come from?

Dark money +1

Ads aren't cheap.

7. THANK you!

Damned if they do, damned if they don't...

"MORE ADS! .. MORE MESSAGING! ... MORE RALLIES!"

"OK . . . but we'lll need to raise some more money to pay for it."

"SELLOUT! We need to get money out of politics!!!"

3. Funded ads that attack funding ads

is probably not something that the people funding the ads, want to fund.

4. people like steyer could do it but hes running for prez. nt

8. His stupid impeachment campaign is a waste of money, imo.

I didn't realize he was considering a run. He'll never win. He doesn't have the charisma. You have to be able to be forceful in your presentation sometimes & I don't see it in this guy.

I read a commentary recently that said, "The democrats are great at policy but suck at politics," & I thought that really sums it up correctly. Dem leadership doesn't seem to recognize that politics is marketing.

5. You want to spend money on ads "all over the country" or would you prefer our candidates spend...

their money on ads to help them get elected in their districts/states?

6. valid point

I’ve always felt dems aren’t strategic and proactive enough compared to gop. Especially when it comes tonlong term strategy. Why is that we are almost always on the defensive countering gop’s invented or simply false issues.
