Republicans in Congress will get more conservative

When the congressional elections are held later this year, which Republican House members will lose?  It won’t be the very conservative ones, safely shielded in red districts.  It will be the moderate/conservative ones in moderate districts.  Thus, the remaining House Republicans will be even more conservative as a group.  This is only an issue for liberals if the Republicans maintain control of the House.

How can you have a discussion with people like this?

Rick Saccone, who was the Republican candidate in the PA special election, said his opponents hated Trump (probably right on that), many of them hated the country (wrong) and hated God (wrong).

How can we have discussions on issues with people like this?  I don’t agree with conservatives on most things but I don’t think they hate the country or God.  This is just over the top and unhelpful to any idea of having a dialogue on issues.  Sad!

Americans are concerned about Russian meddling in the 2018 election

The majority of Americans are concerned about Russian interference in the 2018 elections but of course Republicans aren’t.

The 2018 elections have the potential to be a fiasco – Russian meddling, gerrymandering, election fraud, restricted access to voting and other charges will be leveled by one side or the other.  Do you really think the losing party will accept the House of Representative results?  Sad!
