2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: The cracks that divide us must be healed [View all]geek tragedy
(68,868 posts)26. here's the alternate theory:
national Dems concluded/realized that Grayson was going to implode because of the issues we discussed, even against a weak non-Rubio Republican. they weren't huge fans of Murphy, but no one else stepped forward.
I totally get being disappointed that Murphy was the nominee. But, that's one race. Democratic nominees for the big ticket races have all been Republican retreads. Where are the talented Democratic candidates?
