He supported Russia by firing Tillerson for speaking the truth.

That's what the MSM wants you to think. He was fired for many reasons, one being he was okay with Obama's deal with Iran and the pallets of cash sent to fund terrorism. Trump is not.

" No Collusion " Senate soon to formally announce the same conclusion.

Post election analysis saying Lamb won not so much because he campaigned on an anti-trump message but on matters that mattered to the local electorate. Probably also helped that he was a new fresh face. Voters aer sick of the "do nothing" GOP led Congress. The DNC/Pelosi/Schummer wisely stayed out while the RNC poured money in and brought in Trump.

^^^^ sounds like a “humbled” con

1) “post election analysis”

Can you point to it so I can evaluate this in full?

2) what are these “matters that mattered” to the local electorate ? Methinks many are same that trump sharpened to get his. +20 there


No spinning like a greased piglet ! Back these claims up!

Not the poster and originally from that area. Trump's pro-Steel industry message didn't get the bump he had hoped for. Yes steel is a vital part of the economy but the area has been fighting for decades to diversity away from that. Pittsburgh is a completely different place than when I was growing up there. The way the district is drawn it's heavily urban but still predominantly white. That's why it supposedly was "Trump" country and for a few cycles the Dems didn't even bother to field a candidate for this seat. It really is a heavily republican area. Lamb is close to center so his cross-over appeal worked. If he'd been more left it wouldn't have.

This win was much more important than the AL race where Moore's pedophelia clouded the issues. Yes it was close but for an area to see a 20point drop in GOP support in less than 18 months is crazy

Who me, the poster? Nope. I'm a Dem. Just spelling out what happened. Both sides need to learn from this race.

GOP - don't bring in Trump. Any race can be lost. Don't take anything for granted.

Dems - field centrists, not extremists. Any race can be won with hard work and the right candidate.

Just shows how horrible Hillary was as a candidate. Lamb is pro steel, pro gun, pro tariff, seemingly pro tax relief, and ambivalent on abortion. Also pro military and has an IVY education. Sounds like Trump more than a bit!

1) Lamb supports ROE v Wade . Check. I’m “personally” opposed too but support right to choose strongly

So yes PRO CHOICE IS CENTRIST

Check check check

2) PRO OBAMACARE and wants to stabilize markets through legislation

So yes check check check to that “centrist” tenet


3) called GOP tax bill giveaway to rich

Check check check

Know what? Given it isn’t my district I’ll accept his support of tariffs in exchange for ^^^^and votes on a whole lot more relative to Saccone .

Doesn’t mean centrist going to right in my safe district lol

^^^^ Romney was +17 in that district vs Obama. +20 for trump.

Shows that it had nothing to do with HRC as a bad candidate in that GOP district

My god McCain was +11 in wave election of 2008.

And his father was dem majority leader of state senate among other posts and the uncle dem city controller of Pittsburgh. So I think we have an old school pro union catholic PA democrat here .....

The point is that Lamb campaigned as a and old school Democrat! Notice that word campaign? He appealed to his base voter. Not the Progressive BS that Hillary was running on. The Bernie voters scared the crap out of her.

And the Bernie voters in large part were for Bernie because he wasn't Hillary.

Pennsylvania nail-biter offers midterm lesson for Democrats https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...ocrats-n856421

“"I won the places that represent two-thirds of America's gross domestic product. So I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward. And his whole campaign, 'Make America Great Again,' was looking backwards."

Clinton’s former 2008 presidential campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle didn’t defend her remarks.

“Look this was bad. I can’t sugarcoat it,” Solis Doyle said on HLN this week. “She was wrong and clearly it’s not helpful to Democrats going into the midterms and certainly not going into 2020.”

Solis Doyle added: “She’s put herself in a position where Democrats are going to have to distance themselves from these remarks and distance themselves from her, particularly those Democrats that are running in the states that Donald Trump won.”

If you were really from that area then you would know Democrats still maintain a registration advantage there despite how they have voted in recent past presidential elections. Additionally you would also know Lamb was selected to run, not by voters in a Democrat primary, but in a "convention" of Democrat leaders, so you can see there are advantages to having a father who was "dem majority leader of state senate among other posts and the uncle dem city controller of Pittsburgh".

I'm not trying to suggest he wasn't a good candidate. The Democrats did a good job choosing a candidate that "matches the district". But the reason voters have been going Republican in presidential elections may have more to do with a dissatisfaction with the direction of the Democrat Party has been taking. As Leo Gerard, president of the United Steelworkers Union and VP of the AFL CIO, said "We've been trying to get Democrats to this (tariffs) for more than 30 years." The fact of the matter is that Democrats have taken the unions for granted and that is exactly why those living in that area have been voting Republican. That's pretty obvious from the words that came out of Hillary's mouth in India over the weekend.

They take everyone for granted; women, minorities, unions, etc. They cannot fathom why they all don't think like the coastal elites do.

Republicans yesterday: "Conor Lamb is a Pelosi liberal. His values aren't our values."

Republicans today: "Conor Lamb only won because he's basically a Republican."

I don't know what Republicans you were talking to. Republicans have been saying he was a very good candidate for one reason because he was not supporting Pelosi. I'd guess he'd be a Tim Ryan kind of guy. In other words a back to their roots Democrat.

“According to the new book “Russian Roulette”, George Papadopoulos told federal investigators Trump encouraged him to arrange a meeting with Putin. This means Trump didn’t just know about Russia’s attack on our democracy. It means he is a Co-Conspirator. #TrumpRussiaConspiracy”

I hear that Corn and Isikoff's book is a great comedy read.


Isikoff is the guy who authored a Yahoo News article which was used by Federal authorities in a FISA application to justify the surveillance of Carter Page. His source was Christopher Steele of the uncorroborated Steele dossier fame.

Corn is the Mother Jones D.C. bureau chief accused of sexually inappropriate work place behavior.
