I remember this being said about Virginia in 2008.
I don't know much about 2008, but I'm comparing it to the last election. I believed the narrative that Trump was a bad candidate and that Clinton would do well and had a chance to win states like AZ, AK, GA and make Texas close. I think polls even showed Clinton ahead in AZ, AK and GA at some point.

You mean Trump winning AZ by 3.5% and GA by 5.1%?
The margins were closer but Clinton didn't get a higher percentage of the vote than Obama in Georgia and barely got a higher percentage of the vote in Arizona.

lol didn't Ds: pick up a house seat, a senate seat, and a couple of statewide offices in AZ , pick up a bunch of state house seats, a federal house seat, and come close in every statewide in GA, pick up a bunch of seats in the state leg, come close in the senate and a few statewide races, and pick up two fed house seats in TX just a year and half a go?
this isn't a midterm Democrats will have to focus their spending on the presidency.


We have seen this game before and it resulted in
1. A Prada socialist bisexual atheist being elected Senator in Arizona
2. An unmarried black woman coming a point away from bein Governor in Georgia
3. A hit-and-run DUIer who was a loud supporter of the NFL kneelers nearly winning a Senate seat in Texas
Again this won't be a midterm election. Also
1. she's not a socialist
2. she lost and the election environment won't be as good to Democrats this time
3. Yes he outraised Cruz 70Mill to 40Mill and came up short but Dems put all their effort into winning this seat and still couldn't. This go around I doubt the dem candidate will raise that much

I'm just providing a cautionary warning because I believed in the narrative last time and we all saw what happened with that.
