You’re just a mouth for the narrative. Unsurprising other than your lack of awareness.

Organization wins elections. Have things in place before the election. Putting your name out, going to the black preachers or unions or state fairs or mega church pators. Having volunteers in place. Pressing the flesh. Have an easy succinct message and hammer down with it like Make America Great Again or It's the economy, stupid.
Have oppo research working to define your opposition before he even thinks about defining you. Advertise first before your opposition even gets organized....Latoya Cantrell did this when she first ran....she had billboards up before she had clear challengers. Line up your money early and have steady stream of money. Learn not to talk.

Our shitty candidates are getting destroyed by worse shitty candidates
Mitch blocked the candidates he did not want in DC, period!

Biggest problem for Oz was that he was seen as a carpetbagger. I thought he became a good retail candidate. Fetterman had help. I think that Shapiro probably diverted resources to Fetterman and did a lot of quiet shilling for him because he was killing Mastriano.

Wrong. They are motivated by their pure hate of "nazi" Republicans. They really, truly believe the overwhelming majority of Republicans are nazis... if not 100% of them. That's why they have no qualms about pulling these dirty stunts to steal elections. They are the "good guys" and the "evil guys" must be (D)efeated by any means necessary.

Imagine believing this is true and that the election was legitimate.

I'm sure voter apathy was in issue with Walker. I'm sure thousands of Republicans in Georgia, after 2020 and the general elections of 2022 have to feel like their votes don't matter because the winners have already been decided for them before the elections even take place. I can't say I blame them and I don't know how much I will prioritize voting outside of my local elections like Mayor, city council, Sheriff and DA anymore. George Carlin was 100% accurate about Americans' illusion of choice and the true "owners" of this nation. I seent it with my own eyes now.

What you have done is describe the issue as you wish it to be. The simple fact is that Kemp and other R’s did much better statewide than Walker, so it was something about Walker that did him in. In PA, you had two poor candidates—Oz was a carpet bagger—in a state that still leans blue.

And every last damn one of them would send us to an extermination camp at a moment's notice if they could. This is another thing Republicans aren't getting through their heads. Your family that votes democrat is no longer your friend or ally.

The copium is strong in here. Y’all waited until after Walker lost twice to come out and say he’s a bad candidate and republicans are too discerning when it comes to their vote.
Just take the L.

I assume you mean Roy Moore. If that’s the case, all the bad candidates you voted have one thing in common. They lost state wide elections in red states. Add Walker to that list. The GOP realized their mistake and won both of the seats the next cycle. GA primary voters have to do the same.

The President of the Shenandoah Estates HOA has more experience than Fetterman

As long as we believe their excuses for our candidates losing we can hope to win.
We can hope for change and a better future.
Once we realize there is no hope of winning, then we know we're only subjects.

You voted for senate candidates worse than Walker? Who?
Cassidy.
At least they could've held Walker's hand and guided him in protocol, procedures, and what to say.
Think the Dems haven't had to do that with Hank Johnson and others like him.
You heard what came out of Johnson when he was on his own in a setting.

I agree. They are motivated by fear. They've been told by their leaders and the media that Republicans are nazis.

Really.
What did Fetterman do to win them over?
I really want to see this.

Is it weird that I’ve been voting for over 30 years (and extremely rarely voting for anyone I truly WANT) and yet only recently have I ever seen such handwringing over the “quality” of candidates? Hell, I’ve voted for more shite candidates than “quality” candidates in my lifetime, but only NOW is it the biggest issue for our concern?
Thank
You
