Whoa there buddy, what's "putative" about it? Last I checked poor and rich alike each get one vote in that district. Trump Republicanism is what the people want!

Careful, Zorky needs his safe space and will report you.

I don't give a ****. He is openly trolling. **** him.

Like he hasn't seen that ****ing ad. I am quite positive he lubed up and jerked it furiously to that ad.

Yeh I was jk anyway. He's not openly trolling, every single one of his individual posts (just so I'm attacking the posts and not the poster) are ****ing dumb as can be.

Jesus that advert is grotesque.

Lol, that ad was awesome

The problem with the violent left/antifa is they have too much free health care and not enough jerbs

they need to find a different way to derive meaning in life rather blowing stuff up and defending people who blow stuff up

Traditionally republican districts are electing republicans?

Must be all the maga.

I've infracted both Master and Timmay.

Please remember that this thread is for posting about politics, not other posters or their posts. There's some leeway for fun and games but if you're just going to be nasty to or about others, you're going to "feel the stick".

Handel won by 4%

Previous republicans generally won by 25-50%, when there was any opposition at all

"the Trump wave"

Am I wrong for having a feeling of hope rise in my soul upon reading your post before even finding out about the bill?

Let me click on the link now...

A couple of months ago I was like "at least there's no chance the Senate will pass anything like the house bill".

ahahaha I'm so stupid. I don't even know how to account for it. Like the things that supposedly make "moderate" Republicans OK with the bill (we'll eliminate medicaid expansion in 7 years instead of 3!) are completely nonsensical given the concerns they've expressed, you know, about hurting people that rely on the program. It's just pure nihilism. It's not even electorally driven nihilism, as far as I can tell. The bills are very unpopular.

Apparently the calculation is that the politics of defending not repealing obamacare is worse than the politics of passing an absolutely garbage piece of legislation. WAAF

well named is as ever far too generous to conservatives. The key to it is the massive tax cut for the wealthy. The rest just makes that happen.
