West PA - Get out and VOTE for Saccone TODAY

[philadelphia patriot]

As predicted and was called a “Democrat Lover” for....this is just the tip of the iceberg. We are gonna get smashed in November. Trump has single handedly f**ked the Republican party. And even though the Democrats have no real leader or a good message to give to people, they are gonna win because Trump is that bad.

All of the independents I talk to aren’t fired up to vote democrat. The stock market is doing great, and the trump tax cut is being felt by millions in a positive way. The people who aren’t passionate about specific causes (firearms, immigration, gay rights, etc) will vote for whoever will benefit them the most financially.

Honestly the Republicans might lose, but that would be following the trend since Clinton.

Clinton won and the Democrats were in power in Congress. The Republicans wound up taking power
George Bush Jr. won and the Republicans were in power in Congress. The Democrats eventually took over
Obama won and the Democrats were in power in Congress. The Republicans eventually took over
Trump won and the Republicans were in power in Congress. ?????????

Seems the American people may not like it when one party has power. Or when one party wins the presidency, that party sits back while the other party is motivated. Honestly probably a lot of different ways it could be interpreted.

I know a lot of people want Congress and the presidency to be in lockstep with each other. But I don’t think gridlock is necessarily bad. It mean Democrats aren’t taking rights away from Republicans and vice versa. Unfortunately it does lead to things that need to be taken care of (National deficit ie) not being addressed the way it needs to be.

So unfortunate to lose by such an incredibly small margin.

[Aggies Coach]

Yeah, more jobs and more money are such a horrible signs of failure.

Unfortunately most people aren't a single issue voter. We are gonna see a wave of voters between 18 and 21 coming out to vote. And those kids could give 2 shits about jobs or money. As I have said before, people are free to blindly follow Trump as much as ya like. Its your right as an American. But we have till November, and I promise ya shit will get real. Buy ammo and weapons now.

The democrat that won ran on Trump's platform. If the Republican's run on trump's platform they won't lose. Simple as that.

[eagleclaw]

I don’t know anything about how well Saccone campaigned, however from the recent special elections in Virginia and especially Alabama the GOP needs to pick better candidates. The need find candidates that have some type of charisma to raise enthusiasm for their platform and make a connection with the voters, not have any past sexual misconduct that will come to light once they get nominated and not say anything stupid. Being pro second amendment also helps.

[qmcorps]

Running old fossils does not resonate well. Garbage in-garbage out.

[nfafan]

Yeah, more jobs and more money are such a horrible signs of failure.

They are to the typical demoncrat wretch that don't save or invest and have zero motivation to succeed beyond bitching for $15.00.

Jobs and a soaring 401k is meaningless.

Republican super PAC warns Democratic voters that their candidate supports gun rights

BRIDGEVILLE, Pa. — Conor Lamb, the Democratic nominee in a March 13 special congressional election in southwest Pennsylvania, has deviated from his party’s positions on guns — and a Republican super PAC wants Democratic voters to know about it.

An ad arriving by mail offers a backhanded “thank you” to Lamb from Congressional Leadership Fund, a super PAC aligned with House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) that has spent millions of dollars on the race.

The same group then turned around and sent GOP-leaning voters a very different spin on Lamb — calling him an opponent of gun rights.


In his first television ad, Lamb said he learned to use firearms in the Marines, and “still loved to shoot.” After the mass shooting in Parkland, Fla., Lamb said at a debate, and in a Q&A; with reporters, that he favored stricter background checks but wasn’t sold on other new gun laws.

“The emotions that a lot of us are feeling right now are very raw because we know that there’s not one thing we can do with the stroke of a pen or one thing you can ban,” he said.

One week later, Democrats in Allegheny County began receiving an unusual piece of mail. Congressional Leadership Fund, or CLF, had created an advertisement thanking Lamb “for supporting our Second Amendment rights.”





t’s not clear who else is getting the ad, but registered Democrats in Allegheny County are, generally, more liberal than their counterparts across the district.
“Our job is to make sure voters in Pennsylvania’s 18th District know where Conor Lamb stands on important issues of the day,” said Courtney Alexander, a CLF spokeswoman. “This mailer was sent to voters who might find his views on the Second Amendment of note.”

The 18th District, which will elect its last congressman this month before a new court-drawn map takes effect, covers some suburban parts of populous and left-leaning Allegheny County, then cuts across the much more conservative Greene, Washington and Westmoreland counties. Registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans in the district, but voters there gave Donald Trump a 19-point landslide win in 2016. Many of the Democrats who still hold local office in the district oppose abortion and gun control.

Conservative voters have gotten a very different message from CLF.

In a door-hanger ad that the PAC has given Republican-leaning voters, images of Hillary Clinton and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) accompany a warning that Lamb “wants to impose restrictions on gun ownership and the Second Amendment.” Rick Saccone, the GOP nominee, has been endorsed by the National Rifle Association, in part owing to his efforts to unravel some Pennsylvania gun laws.

Ads designed to play to the other party’s voters are hardly new.

In 2016, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee intervened in a Nebraska primary to boost a Republican candidate opposed by the party’s establishment, hoping to weaken eventual nominee Don Bacon. (Bacon won the nomination and then, narrowly, the election.) In this cycle, CLF President Corry Bliss has said he wants to intervene to help more left-wing candidates in Democratic primaries, on the theory that they’d be weaker general election nominees in swing districts.

They don't call the Republicans the "Stupid Party" for nothing....
