I'm getting so tired of Ojeda getting in the way of everything. If Booker loses by a slim margin, He and Williamson have to answer for that.

Yes I'm aware that their endorsements probably don't move the needle much but imo you have a responsibility as a political public figure to be intelligent with your endorsing decisions.

McGrath has been favored in the primary from the beginning and a little known former state Senator from West Virginia, who was also a candidate in one of the most overhyped races of the 2018 cycle, would not change that. I'll say the primary is Likely McGrath, it doesn't really matter who wins though, since the winner of this primary is losing to McConnell by double digits in November.

Booker is trailing in his own internal, this primary is basically over

Conservative white woman notable for her (campaign for) U.S. House attempts to run for statewide office in a Southern state, polling frontrunner with notable support from out of state, only to be upset in the last few days by a young black left-wing elected official? That upstart candidate only close in his own internals, but with a dominating sense of momentum in the final days before the primary? Not going to draw out the analogy too far, but we have heard this song somewhere else a couple years ago.

This isn't a Graham scenario, and it isn't that applicable here. Also had Graham won the primary, she'd be Governor right now. Also that primary arguably had 3 possible frontrunners (Graham, Levine, Gillum), which made the result very unpredictable.

Hopefully, if McGrath loses or has a close call, Democrats stop donating here, but given that their donations are to oppose McConnell and not support McGrath, it probably doesn't matter. McGrath has like a 0.5% chance of winning this seat, and Booker has a 0.1% chance, so McGrath is probably the better candidate, but if Booker winning causes people to stop donating here, it would be worth it.

Lol

I fully approve of McCaskill-ian ratf@˘κery, but it's totally wasted on a state that's not going to be remotely close.

Aren't there libertarians in NC or MT that could be propped up?

MT has no libertarians, NC does have one, it might also be wise to prop up the libertarians in TX, KS, and GA (ensure Purdue doesn't win on Round 1)
