(68,469 posts)to get along...Nan Whaley is a perfect example...she without a doubt hurt Ryan. Why did she even run...she didn't even campaign really.

(4,310 posts)is not going to win over any magats, and it depresses the Democratic base.
Better if Ryan had not talked about Democrats or President "Fighting Joe Biden", at all...
talking about yourself is negated when you criticize your own party...

Ryan should just switch parties and run as a """responsible""" Republican. The best performers of the night have been Democrats and those seen as """responsible""" Republicans. The Trump extremists only did well in extremist areas they were already expected to win in.

I am so sorry. I lived in a red state for a while and it really sucks. I cant believe weak heartless slime like him and Abbott arent run out of town on a rail.
