Dems got a shot at any of them? I know Perez has talked a lot about the Georgia one.

Special elections are weird. Dems win statewide in Montana pretty regularly. GA-06 was only a Trump district by a point.

Montana is weird because that's a statewide seat, correct? Guess that one depends on who they get.

Yeah Montana is statewide. They are right on the cusp of adding a 2nd seat in 2020 reapportionment, will be very close.


hopes all ride on this 29 year old georgian who looks almost 40. DiM would be all in for him, i would imagine.

Hmm. That ad doesn't seem all that effective to me. I mean, if you squint, it looks like the PC police are after him, and that might actually be an asset in Georgia.

really bummed out Van Jones was so positive about the speech. I guess that's a fringe benefit of the Prez constantly criticizing CNN, as well as having his army of mindless turds hurl insults at them, they feel compelled to be balanced, even if it doesn't warrant it. at least that's what I'm telling myself, Jones could very well just be a moron too.

that Grover Norquist video pac posted a while back says it all. they just need a guy to sign the bills. as long as he doesn't act insane around the clock, and performs like any functioning adult would in these situations, they'll heap him with praise.

immigrant detained after speaking out
she came to the US on a legal visa that expired when she was 7 and her DACA renewal is pending.

they don't want people like her to put up a fight, to speak out, to control their own agency and contribute to our society.

The last thing we need is another liberal university math professor educating our children and contributing positively to our society. Get her out of here ASAP.

I would call it a web video rather than a campaign ad. Not like they're gonna put any money behind it.

@HubieDo CNN: Trump lied to anchors about immigration to get ‘positive press coverage’ in run-up to speech rawstory.com/2017/03/cnn-tr…

Lol! And the media has been praising the speech all morning...no wonder nobody respects the media. All this hysteria over Russia will die down and Trump will be fine. Nothing to see.

Our media really are terrible, and TV media is worse than terrible. I watched PBS last night, and they were all pretty much slobbering on Trump's dick because he managed to read a speech maintaining standing posture.

On style, the speech only looked good if you compared it to his demented press conference of a few weeks ago or a tweet storm. But in reality, it was a poorly written speech poorly delivered.

On substance, it was pretty ridiculous--in that there were almost no specifics, other than he's got a plan to explode the deficit beyond all recognition and is completely ignoring Russia and the various problems in his administration.

EXCLUSIVE: Barack Obama's close confidante Valerie Jarrett has moved into his Kaloroma home, which is now the nerve center for their plan to mastermind the insurgency against President Trump

This fine headline is from the very reliable and highly respected Daily Mail

@costareports Some sources in WH are frankly surprised at how pundits are warming to the speech. Say Trump has not changed, no big shift in policy coming.

@jonfavs Even the Trump White House is surprised how vapid and gullible DC pundits can be.

Amazing
