Another Resistance Fail: Democrat Loses Omaha Mayoral Race.....

Perez’s statement follows the DNC’s controversial embrace of Heath Mello, a Democratic mayoral candidate in Omaha, Nebraska, whose years-long history of voting against abortion rights in the state Legislature drew fire from progressives this week. Daily Kos, a liberal website that raises money for lesser-known Democratic candidates, pulled its endorsement of Mello this week after discovering his history on the issue, and NARAL Pro-Choice America President Ilyse Hogue slammed the DNC for adding him to its cross-country unity tour......snip~

Blame your kind.

 

Which kind? The faction that backed Mello, or the faction that opposed him?

 

Doesnt matter. The left is the left.

 

And that, folks, is why we keep him around.

 

They are not competitive. The D's have to run somebody in a 2 party system, the Demos propaganda makes it sound like these races are significant so the Demos can create a false sense of hope.

 

DNC Blamed for Omaha Mayoral Loss.....

The Democratic National Committee threw a fit last month over Sen. Bernie Sanders's decision to attend a rally with a mayoral candidate in Nebraska who once voted for pro-life legislation. DNC Chair Tom Perez was quick to issue a statement to distance the committee from the Omaha candidate, Heath Mello, and insist that if you're a Democrat, you have to defend abortion rights. Damage control ensued, with some leaders like Nancy Pelosi ensuring Democrats that if they are pro-life, they should feel welcome in the party.

Mello ultimately lost his race Tuesday and Nebraska Democratic Party chairwoman Jane Kleeb - and Mello himself - are putting some of the blame squarely on the DNC.

"It's astounding that our party chairman would say pro-life Democrats are not welcome," Kleeb told the Associated Press when Mello conceded the election.

Mello acknowledged the dynamic of the race changed after the unity tour stopped in Omaha.

"We tried to run a campaign that was inclusive from the beginning regardless of political affiliation, regardless of ideology under the banner of change," Mello said."

The DNC's unity tour, as you can see, was not exactly a success.....snip~

Its only fitting, Right?

 

I thought with Shillary's help, dems were going to turn red States blue, and what not.

Looks like dems continue to be a regional party.

 

The DNC would rather loose, than back a pro-life democrat. This just shows how ideologically rigid the democrat party has become. Blue dog democrats are pretty much gone, and all that's left is corporate dems, and the far left.

 

The progressives are playing identity politics, which completely eclipses any actual, positive input and guidance that could be provided. The funny thing is - their "identity" is repugnant to most voters. Take all the Maxine Watters/Nancy Pelosi/Clinton and Chucky quotes, combine it with ridiculous actors and egregious fake news anchor quotes, and roll them up together, you have a really stinky platform - it you can even call it a platform. If you were to take all the personality traits that produces that "identity" - incessant hypocrisy, negativity, lying and conceit as displayed by the left and put them into a single person, that person would be the most detestable and unpopular person in the room. So their "identity" sucks - another failure.

The "social issues" do not emanate from republicans. There was no hue and cry over tranny potties until Obama put it front and center as if it were the most pressing issue of the day. Racial, sexual and other problems are fanned and encouraged by the left. So on top of a really ugly identity, their actions (riots, violence, obstruction, blocking free-speech, subversion) don't speak well for the left either. They are a very small club of loudmouths who have so much media clout that they fool themselves into thinking they have numbers.

 

A government agency issuing a regulatory clarification -- quietly, routinely, without fanfare -- is NOT "Obama put it front and center as if it were the most pressing issue of the day." What made it a gigantic issue? CONSERVATIVES drawing attention to it and freaking out as if it were the most important issue of the day.

 

In light of all the pressing issues on Americans, Obama chooses to address potties.
Perverse priorities.

 

Simply restating the claim I already rebutted doesn't make it true.

The federal government issues a lot of routine rulings. They are not "priorities". They do not come at the expense of other things. They are simply the government going about its daily business.

Obama did not "choose" to address potties. He did not "prioritize" it. Indeed, there's no indication he had anything to do with it at all. It was government employees doing their job: issuing a letter clarifying how Title IX applies to transgender people, in response to an increase in questions and court rulings about the topic.

Conservatives took this routine letter and freaked out about it, blowing it up into a major issue.

 

Say what you want, Obama's legacy is about potties.
