Pro Trump girl boss Amy McGrath trailing McConnel by 15 points. Liberals are using the same logic they did on Sanders to trash Booker, that his primary hurt her, and it has nothing to do her policies or anything.
Like, listen. I understand the reasoning that in red states you have to court at least some Republicans, but the reason why this is flawed is because if offered the choice, most people are going to choose coke over diet coke. You have to offer something that's fundamentally different from your competitor. Why would I, as a Republican, choose a moderate, someone who represents just some of my values and is a bit more respectful of decorum and the political process, versus someone who represents nearly all of my values and will ruthlessly make them into reality God speed?
Charles Booker would have kicked the **** out of McConnel, by the way.
