Honestly a relief.
Crockett might have won, but there was a reason the NRSC manipulated her into running in the first place.
If you don't think Talarico will be a walk in, watch the Colbert interview on YouTube the FCC stopped from being broadcast a few weeks ago.
Watched it before. He came off as an uninteresting centrist who only talks down to republicans and doesn't really talk much about the policies he supports that would help them. He's the stereotype of democrats who think they're better than them. I can't see how he could motivate democrats to go out and vote in a non-presidential election enough to offset voter suppression and he certainly doesn't seem like the type who'd appeal to republicans. I certainly didn't come out of watching that wanting to vote for him; quiet the opposite. And most of what I've seen from his "supporters" are people who only want to vote for him because he's a white man, which as been extremely off-putting.
I voted for him because all of that is still far far better than someone who supports Israel.
Yeah sick of Democrats that are vote for me because of [incert bad Republican here] talk. Fuck that tell me your position on the issues we face and what you are going try to accomplish for us.
Man I thought I was the only person that could read someone. That said, a fucking ready for TV person.
I guess time will tell.
