RE: 2022 Mid-Term Elections Thread
Congratulations to all the morons who for reasons beyond my comprehension just keep voting for high taxes, an unsecured border, unborn children being murdered, out of control government spending, inflation, socialism, and the overall demise of our once fine country.

It's just too bad that all of us have to pay the price for the idiocy of others.

No chance DeSantis wins 2024. We can’t even win GA!
We are dangerously close to 1party rule. Previous generations were smart enough to flipflop when one party got too powerful. Those days are over. We see it at the state level & will soon see it at the federal level.

Ummm....you do realize basically any other credible Republican would have defeated Warnock, right?

Kemp beat Abrams by 7.5%.

DeSantis is polling ahead of Biden for president in 2024. Problem is DeSantis is unlikely to get past Trump.

Completely false. You can't run candidate with no business in politics. JD Vance completely underperformed the Republican governor in Ohio, Walker underperformed the Republican governor in Georgia. You can probably guess who pushed those 2 candidates in the primaries. Thankfully 1 of them pulled out their election, only 10 points behind the other republicans in the state.

RE: 2022 Mid-Term Elections Thread
Too early for these kinds of pronouncements. There are plenty or reasons why Ron DeSantis may flame out before or during the primaries, or he may decide that 2024 is not the time for him to run. A very credible case from his political standpoint can be made for that.

But, to the limited accuracy of my dime-store crystal ball, I am growing more and more confident the Donald Trump will not be the Republican nominee. He is political poison; and I am starting to think it is intentional on his part.

The more important question is how much further damage will he do to the Republican chances between now and 2024. My crystal ball is not clear at all clear on this second question.

DeSantis will get the nomination, but we'll see the 2020 map plus one more Blue (b/c country only gets Bluer). My guess is it'll be Ohio. North Carolina dark horse.

And DeSantis has not been the target of a national political campaign or consistently been in the national spotlight.

A complete moron should have been able to beat Warnock. Unfortunately tyranny is at our front door and we are letting it in. Socialism-communism is now what voters are asking for. Especially the black community. I will never understand how a race of people held in bondage in the past begs for it to return to them.

Maybe they actually understand what socialism and communism are and aren't falling for GOP lies...European social democracies are not Cuba, China or the USSR. You also make a good point about the past but you're looking too far back - many people are still alive to remember how they were treated in the 1950s that the GOP wants the country to return to, and they don't want to go back.

You are either a liar, or a very dishonest person or someone who has no idea what Republicans want. But the Democrats do survive on lies and deception and character assassination.

Neither has Joe Biden faced any scrutiny and he has a mountain of unsavory and unscrupulous dirt that could be exposed if our so called journalists in the MSM weren’t all neutered and spayed.

RE: 2022 Mid-Term Elections Thread
With Senator Warnock's victory last night, we now have the first election cycle since Senators became directly elected where every single incumbent won -

"Every Senate Incumbent Won Re-Election
December 7, 2022 at 10:04 am EST By Taegan Goddard 13 Comments

Cook Political Report: “Now, every single Senate incumbent — most notably the quartet of first-term Democrats who seemed particularly vulnerable just a year ago — has won re-election.”

“That’s a first in American history since the direct election of senators. The last cycle when no incumbent lost re-election in the general election was in 1914 — the first under the newly-ratified 17th Amendment. However, that year two incumbents did lose in primaries.”

“And it marks the first time that our final Toss Up races split 100 percent toward the same party. There is no equivocating — this was a completely and totally disappointing midterm for Senate Republicans and a huge indictment on Trump, Trumpism and the mutually assured destruction the former president insists on taking the party even as he’s still myopically focused on the 2020 election and his bogus claims of fraud.”

at the end of the day, the GOP wanted to run a black guy and they found one of such low quality. Just run better people.

That’s a first in American history since the direct election of senators [in 1912].
And, I believe, only one (1) incumbent Governor was defeated, too. (Nevada)

These outcomes, overall, signify an overwhelming endorsement of the Status Quo by the American people, and an almost sublime contentment with the way things are going.
