Subject: DNC can sweep the mid-terms I have read a dozen articles stating that the lose of Moore in a deep red state is the beginning of the end to Trump, Trumpism and the GOP in general. The idea is that, if a democrat can win in deep red Alaf'ingbama, they can win in other red states too!
Using Alabama a model, I have written down what the DNC needs to do:
1. Make sure the GOP runs a deeply flaw candidate with numerous allegations of 'child molestation' and a history of outlandish statements.
2. Outspent the GOP by about 30 to 1
3. Ensure 30% of voters are black (might be tough to do - in Alabama 26% of the population is black, in 1/2 of the states that percentage is less than 8%.
4. Have many prominent republicans, including the other senator from that state, opposed the GOP candidate
5. Have 1.7% of the GOP vote wasted on a write-in protest votes
So then if they do all this they will win in a landslide? Uh, well no.....this will only get you a thin 1.5% margin of victory almost subject to recount. |
