C'mon, Lindsey!

1. One of the Most Pious, Sanctimonious Republicans on the Clinton Inquisition....

sure has changed his ethical bottom line, hasn't he?

2. One of the dumber moves by a republican lately...and that's saying a lot.

I mean with the republicans already reeling from the backlash against the repeal of Roe and trying to downplay it, with many repub candidates scrubbing their support for snatching women's right away from their websites, a 67-year-old single man, never married or associated with a woman, suddenly, proposes a solution to the abortion problem...a nationwide ban against abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy (just what Mitch McConnell and the republicans needed...NOT).

That ranks right up there with trump inciting the nationally televised J6 insurrection; stealing the top secret government docs and smuggling them to Florida; the dummies who signed their names to fake elector ballots; AND NOW GRAHAM OF ALL PEOPLE, PROPOSING A SOLUTION TO THE ABORTION PROBLEM.

Thank you, Lindsey, the Democratic Party thanks you deeply.

3. They think they are going to trick dumb middle of the road independents

Into thinking that this is a good compromise. WTF.

4. I know. But people are not that stupid.

5. 45% or so are.

[brush]

6. Not in my opinion. Dems make up about 32% or the electorate...

republicans about 28% and Indies about 40%.

Of the 28% of republicans, maybe half of them are maga republicans, and that's a generous counting. The rest are old school republicans and never-trumpers.

As far as Indies, recent polls show that they are turning against maga republican elecition deniers/anti-abortionists as much as everyone else. And Indies were always split...some leaning left andsome right. Now most are leaning left with women and Dems.

And we know where Democrats stand against maga republican/election denier/anti-abortionist.

Grahams after 15-week abortion ban is a dumb move. Know how I know, Mitch McConnell is strickly against it as it's the last thing republicans nationally want to be talking about as the nation has shown it is against any kind of abortion ban. The republicans, with the mid-terms coming up, want to be talking against Biden's inflation and the cost of groceries, rent, cars new and used and gas going up...not abortion.
