Very true. We thought we had ND in the bag because it seemed impossible a non-incumbent liberal RAT could win in such a conservative state, and look what happened. We should win West Virginia this time around, but never underestimate the RATs.
>> Tennant’s candidacy is a boon to our odds of winning because Tennant is (from what I understand) a down-the-line liberal who would be hard-pressed to pretend to be a social conservative. <<
I do have a hard time seeing anyone buying Tennant as the "more socially conservative" candidate, but stranger things have happened. A lot of time it has nothing to do with the candidate's actual policy positions/track record, and everything to do with their "tone" and rhetoric.
For example, Donald Trump and Jeanine Pirro are probably to the left of your average RINO, but they've convinced numerous freepers that they're hardcore conservative tea party warriors because they go on TV all the time and blast Obama. Clintonite gun-grabbing IRA suckup Peter King and gay-marriage loving RINO Ileana Ros-Lehtinen have convinced numerous conservatives that they're heroic fighters on our side. Chris Smith in NJ is a "social conservative" icon too, despite the fact he is only super conservative on pro-life, but liberal on everything else. EX-Senator Sam Nunn had numerous Georgia freepers who loved him and claimed he was a "conservative" Democrat, even though he was pro-abortion and anti-gun (they were "shocked" when he became Obama's co-campaign chair) My state Senator (Dan Cunningham) is another example of a candidate who ran as a "socially conservative Catholic" to get elected in Illinois Senate district that was largely Dan Lipinski's turf, and stupid votes bought it, even though he is a Chicago machine hack who is pro-abortion and pro-gay marriage.
Conversely, Norm Coleman and Chris Christie had a clearly rock solid record being pro-life and pro-traditional marriage, but numerous conservatives talking heads convinced the grassroots that they're "socially liberal, pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage RINOs". Lindsey Graham is about 20X to the right of Planned Parenthood darling Mark Kirk on social issues (not to mention numerous other issues like the Iraq surge), but numerous freepers are convinced that Graham is worst than a Democrat whereas Kirk is a "social moderate" who is "with us when it counts". The examples could continue.
>> David Tennant would be even more liberal than Obama. He known for campaigning for progressive-liberal MPs in in the UK. <<
Really? Interesting. I never knew where Doctor Who was on the political spectrum, but he is unusual for the mostly secular UK celebrities because he's a practicing Christian and churchgoer who believes that religion is a "must have", and that it really shaped his character. I figured he was probably a Stephen Baldwin type figure in the UK. I guess he's more of a Martin Sheen type "religious" person (or Jimmy Carter for that matter)
Per Wikipedia, Tennant is a Labour shill who introduced leader (and atheist) Ed Miliband at the last Labour party conference.
Fraud on the reservations was definitely the margin of victory for Senator Heidi! in ND. But it was close enough to steal because Berg ran an awful race and got out retail-politicked in a parochial state. 1 freeper saw it coming, Clintonfatigued. I couldn’t believe it.
Capito and Big Coal will want to filibuster any judge who has some sort of left leaning background.
The far left eco judges are usually the same ones who make rulings for gun control, open borders and race quotas.
Id be concerned mostly about her views on immigration and filibustering judges. She is in a state where she has no incentive to hispander.
Joe Manchin is an idiot who thinks you have to “pass something” whether it is on guns or immigration.
