I was beginning to wonder if Angle was pulling a John McCain.....lose on purpose.
You would have been happy if he tried to lose against JD on purpose.
I always thought JMcC was trying to win in 2008.
Think of it this way. In 2008 McCain and the Republicans had one main argument, it was :”We may suck but Democrats are so terrible you HAVE to vote for us. You have no choice”. And to most here that appeared to be a great argument, Obama was the lower threshold of acceptability.
This 2010 election the voters are fed up with Democrats, many willing to vote R instead D . So what is democrats main argument? : “We may suck but Republicans/Tea party candidates are so terrible you HAVE to vote for us. You have no choice”. WOW, I have heard this argument before someplace.
As Chris Matthews concluded when he was reflecting on the likely voters response to this Democrat strategy :”You think I don't have a choice?? You watch me vote and see if I don't.”
The Democrats on MSNBC talking points now go : “The voters are too smart to fall for Republicans and vote against us”. Weren't Republicans claiming the same thing in 2008?
