It's almost like the candidates should sell people on why they are, in fact, good, instead of just rambling about how bad their opposition is.

Ossof barely ever mentioned Trump so I think he may have just someone found a way to run a universally bad campaign I can't take much more of this

Fair enough, it was more aimed at the Democratic party in general.

ossoff had a strategy of not nationalizing the campaign, which probably doesn't work well on the most nationalized campaign ever

i got a ton of flyers in the mail and on my door and my takeaway of his central message was 'responsible government spending' which isn't a loving platform or policy

The early autopsy's I'm reading/hearing is that he didn't really have a "strategy" at all. Or at least a focused one....

All this needs is an ending with Solidarity forever. Also lol the cucks Cuckboy lost by 3.7 points more then Hillary. I really think this country needs some Maoist style cultural revolution on the Ivy Leagues. Just send them all to work in loving Steel Mills, Walmarts, and Mcdonals for two years, also close down every Ivy League school. Useless wastes of space.

It's a complete loving joke. Why run for office if you don't even have any stated policy goals? Why pursue political power if you have no agenda? At least I can respect the ability of insane dipshits who ran on deporting all cucks to articulate an agenda no matter how stupid it might be. I'm disgusted at not only the dems lack of any values but also the fact we have gone from the party of the great society to.....what ever the gently caress this is
