After recently coming up short in the recently held
special election in Kansas’ 4th congressional district, Democrats have now
pinned their hopes on Georgia’s 6th congressional district when it comes to their
next attempt to flip a U.S. House seat from Red to Blue, and in the process
declare that victory as being a referendum on the policies of President
Trump. And that opportunity will come early
next week. But a new poll may dampen
those high expectations just a bit.
Democrats have already given $8 million to help their candidate, Josh
Ossoff, prevail among the 18 candidates running in the district primary. The district was previously represented by
Republican Tom Price who has since been tapped by President Trump to become his
Secretary of Health and Human Services.
And although Trump barely carried the Georgia district
in 2016, a new poll released by Decision Desk HQ and RRHElections.com shows
that Mr. Ossoff is heading toward a rather difficult runoff with one of the
five Republicans in the primary. Ossoff
can only avoid a runoff if he gets at least 50 percent of the vote in the
district, but the poll now shows Ossoff with just 39 percent. Another Democrat in the race takes 4 percent,
pushing total Democrat support to 43 percent. The smorgasbord of Republicans in the primary
have a combined total of 51 percent, with Karen Handel at 15 percent. So this new polling, if in any way accurate, would
seem to indicate that the Democrats will have no better luck in Georgia than
they had in Kansas with Ossoff likely getting beaten like a rented mule.
It’s also this same poll that shows that with more
than 39,000 ballots cast overall as of Wednesday, Democrats currently lead
Republicans in early voting. And as many
as 95,000 to 130,000 voters may ultimately turn out to vote by Tuesday. Decision Desk HQ notes, “Republicans remain
divided on who to back, and this is their Party’s blessing and curse going into
Election Day. Ossoff is barely clearing
a third of the remaining vote with much of the rest divided in a battle royal
between four Republican hopefuls.” The
site goes on to add, “If these voters stay engaged and do eventually show up,
they’ll prevent Ossoff from clearing 50% Tuesday. If they aren’t as eager,
things get hairy and Ossoff’s first round win odds improve greatly.” So Democrats, I’m sure, are holding their
collective breath.
And it’s both this upcoming election and the previous one in
Kansas, that should make very clear just how shallow of a bench the Democrats
truly have, all thanks to Obummer, because this guy Ossoff is nothing more than
a fraud and on a pretty significant number of levels. First of all he’s claimed to be a small
business owner, which he is not. And
he’s also claimed to have held high security clearances, but this is also
apparently not the case. So I guess you
could say that he’s the perfect individual to be picked as a candidate for the
Democrat Party. So I can’t help but wonder
if this is truly the caliber of individual that the Democrats are looking for,
and if they feel that fielding such candidates provides to them their best
opportunity for winning enough seat to once again become the majority
party.
But I do have some questions for Democrats. Such as, if the Democrats truly are the party
of the poor, the middle class, and of America's “working families" then
why is it that they continue to demand amnesty and citizenship for millions of
illegal aliens? And too, why is it that
they seek to increase the number of immigrants from third world countries
including those from the most dangerous area on the planet including countries
that both sponsor and support terrorism as evidenced by the attacks in Germany,
Italy, Greece, France, Great Britain, Sweden, etc.? And why do they continue to support open
borders thus simultaneously serving as the instrument of destruction of the
very poor, the middle class and the same “working families" that they
claim to represent and to champion?
And I guess what I’m most curious how it is with
such an agenda that Democrats plan to convince enough voters to go off to the
polls and to vote for them, and in so doing agree with providing what will be
the billions of dollars which will be required to cover the costs of that
agenda. The most egregious lie I think
that I have heard in my lifetime came from Democrats when they declare that
they are the party that is the protector of the poor, the middle class as well
as the workers and minorities. The truth
is that when it comes to Democrats their only remaining path to power is
through the destruction of our sovereignty via the legalization of millions of
illegals and so called "refugees" regardless of the danger and financial
costs to our own citizens. I simply do
not see that as being a winning strategy.
But in spite of all that has been said about the issues now confronting the Democrat Party, and there are many, there is also mounting pressure on the Republican Party to produce. If they continue to squabble amongst themselves and remain unwilling, and unable, to move forward on President Trump’s agenda of repealing and replacing Obamacare as well as, tax and immigration reform, including the building of ‘The Wall’, then make no mistake, come 2018 I have no doubt that we will witness a great resurgence in the Democrat Party’s ability to regain positions of power, at least in Washington. So our Republican leadership must recommit themselves to advancing the agenda of our still new president just as our still new president must remain committed to keeping his campaign promises.
