Title: Dim Party Is Broke
Post by: Solar on April 10, 2017, 08:17:08 AM
Upcoming Kansas election could be a bellwether for the rest of nation where the dim party is concerned.
Tomorrow's special election to fill the House seat vacated by Rep. Mike Pompeo is exposing just how broke the Dim party really is.
This is an extremely important election for the Dims, but they couldn't even cough a mere 20 grand for mailers. :biggrin:

The special election for Kansas' 4th Congressional District has caused an open feud between the Democratic candidate and his state party.
James Thompson has a beef with the state party after it refused to give his campaign $20,000, the Wichita Eagle reported. Thompson's campaign said it wanted to use the money for mailers, but the party's executive committee voted against the request, saying it didn't have the money...

Thompson is facing Republican State Treasurer Ron Estes and Libertarian Chris Rockhold to replace Mike Pompeo, who is now President Donald Trump's CIA director. The election is April 11.
A poll from Washington-based Lincoln Park Strategies done for Thompson showed he trailed Estes, 56 percent to 32 percent. Rockhold got only 4 percent.

I wonder how all those lower-tier Donks (in ANY state) will feel when the party finances REALLY tighten and only the name-brand morons get any party cash at all. These people are only the tip of Ye Olde Titanic-killer.

Here it is, the only race at this time and they can't even let go of 20 Grand?
Two things here, one, the party is obviously flat ass broke, and two, what little they do have isn't about to be wasted on a sure loss. :thumbsup:

If they can't afford mailers I suppose radio and tv spots are out of the question.

They dumped 8 million in the Georgia election that they consider the best shot.

You mean this $8 Million?

Georgia Democrat Jon Ossoff Raises $8.3M
95 percent of first quarter donations came from out of state.

If he doesn't win by 50% in the first race he has to run against the top contender. He is the leader right now with 45% but in a republican district I think he will lose in the run off! Even if he was to pull it off he could never hold that seat in the general 1 1/2 years from now

Morally bankrupt no principles to guide as a compass, no core values from which to anchor and the Captain mutinied the crew, who in turn threw him overboard, and in the process, his body broke the rudder.
Adrift at sea, no compass, they drift aimlessly...

Broken or not, the Dims are edging back into position. Not due to their competence, but just because voters aren't comfortable with the alternative. Trump and the RINO Pubs aren't a fan favorite. I'm not sure that the voters hearts are where they should be with true conservatives either. I believe that about half the voters want more stability and economic result while the other half are threatened by the loss of handouts and their government nanny. Obviously, the swing voters control the future elections - but what will take their hearts and minds? I'm not sure.

The recent election in Kansas indicates the current perception - red state that just showed a lot of blue. The Pubs need to get on-key and the voters need to feel it if we're to hold the majority for Trump's term. The fact that the Dims are so broken is apparently not enough.

Don't delude yourself by believing leftist headlines. Trump has nothing to do with the GOP, if anything people are pissed that he's working with them and not against them.
This does not translate into Dim support, to the contrary, it proves what we warned them about, that Trump has always been a lib, and that's not what they voted for, they voted for what they thought was a conservative.
Remember, it was the LSM that gave trump 3 billion in free air time, tried to paint him as a racist, which angered his base, even more, endearing him to them and building their resolve to vote against the status quo.
Nothing has changed, these same people still hate the dim party and the establishment and will vote against them once again.

It's the media trying to translate anger at Trump as if the dims magically pick up these votes, that's akin to claiming God flooded the earth, so all those left alive turn their support to the devil.
People don't flip their values like that.
