Ossoft:  "I was this close."

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

It's okay though, the Jon Ossoff Victory Party can now be the Band Camp it always wanted to be.

No ... he did not take credit.  He said he was happy to help.  And I'm sure he'll be helping again from now through the election.

President Trump, after all, @geronl is the head of the Republican Party so we should expect no less from him.   ^-^

Bruce Levell was the pro-Trump candidate.  He finished 10th.

Oh stuff that high minded nonsense. Donny is poking the Rats in the eye for making a worthless special election in the middle of nowhere into a national referendum. The Rats deserve to be mocked and ridiculed for this disaster.



The little shit made Trump victorious instead.

Ditto.  Had Ossoft won, the Dems would be pushing it on all cylinders as some sort of nationwide anti-Trump mandate.  If what Trump says knocks Democrats off-balance, then more power to him.

Trump won the hand, but it was the Dems that ran the stakes up.  I expected them to pour the money in (GOP would have done the same thing), and I expected the media to pump it up as a huge loss for Trump, but I am a little pleasantly surprised by the conniptions the left in general is having.

LOL. The MSM is already calling this a HUUUUGE lose for Trump. They are also calling the GOP House seat that was won last week as a devastating loss as well. If you can read this piece without breaking out laughing you are comatose.....

Quote
The near-death experience for Republicans -- on the heels of one a week earlier in Kansas, where Democrats nearly flipped a deep-red district -- could still have the effect of leading GOP lawmakers in competitive states and districts to seek distance from the President, making it even more difficult for Trump to advance his agenda on Capitol Hill.
In Tuesday's results, Democrats saw more evidence of a playing field for the 2018 midterm elections that has drastically expanded -- and given the party's 10 senators up for re-election in states that Trump won some breathing room.
"To me what's amazing is that we continue to see this level shift across the country, a 20-point swing, that puts about 123 Republican seats potentially in play," said Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas.

We were kinda into it also, Frank.  And, by the way, that woman was really suffering.  Have you no pity?
