I'm agreeing with you, so I'm not sure why you're melting down here, Joe. Calm down, my god.Sounds like party before country. And yes it’s concerning. It’s concerning that an opposition party has such bad ideas that their only hope is to get a toxic candidate elected. Do you how much 1 million in ad buys and mailers does in a congressional race? Why not have Hassan face Morse and debate her votes and positions against true conservative from an established candidate? Because you know your ideas would lose.
But this is just an extension of long time Democratic playbook of straw candidates to elect machine pols. E.g how did Madigan continue to win in a heavy Hispanic district? He would pay Hispanics to run to dilute the Hispanic vote and talk bad about the other Hispanics. And congrats to the destruction of Illinois. But Maddow don’t teach you history does she?
But, you know, let's not gloss over that both parties do it. I mean it's not a secret. I hate the strategy because one should run on his or her own merits, but you know, Politics 101.
And Maddow 'don't teach' me anything, thanks.
