MicroWaveGOP goaded Jasmine Crockett into running for senate by promoting favorable polls: Report
lb_oShe shall not run against Talarico in Democratic, this is a huge mistake of hers
We need more people like her and James running against GOP and not clashing with each other at Dems primaries
Republicans strengthened during the Tea Party battle of the Obama Years, and morphed into MAGA and took over, and they did it by challenging boring establishment Reps who were just filling a seat.
Progressives are in a position to do the same thing to the Democratic Party, and it starts in the Primaries. Either incumbents will shift left, or a progressive candidate will take their seat and do it.
Progressives also have to realize that their candidates won’t magically win in every district. Still, every primary needs to be contested, if for no other reason than to let the eventual winner know what their constituents value.
I don’t think there is really a loser in a primary. The candidate that loses the election learns a bit about the people in their district, and about themselves, which they can take into the next campaign. In fact, I can make an argument that Democrats are in such dire straits right now because they don’t have enough candidates losing primaries, and learning from that. That leads directly to weaker candidates in the General Election
Valid.
