(28,151 posts)I wasn't saying resources shouldn't be put into a race in June due to races finishing later. No, in talking about a blitz at the end I was addressing the "too little" part of the "too little too late" sentiment you and others are propagating.
"Too late" for the Big Dog? No, I'd say right about now is a good time. You want to stir up excitement at the end, when it's time to vote. Get the voters enthusiastic enough to be all about voting on the big day, not succumb to distractions and such. The end of this campaign is the ideal time for such a big event.
Lastly, other races have been going on for some time now. Many of these tough races have/had no primary challengers. So of us have already been hard at it on campaigns against the R's already.
It's the soonest, it's the most important of this very moment, but it is one of many that need resources and I am glad it's being viewed that way.
It's very easy to get caught up in the moment, follow a race closely and get emotionally invested in it (deeply). Just because it is the only race in the world right now to you does not make it the way it really is.
