We need this kind of spirit in every person we nominate this cycle, one who can define Republicans and their policies right out of the gate before they do it to us.

1. Love this! More of this in our campaigning, please. nt

2. He's NOT "our fantastic candidate"

He's one of (currently) six. Why would you support him as opposed to one of the others?

[notpolltested]

3. Anyone is welcome to support who ever they'd like. "our" meaning a Democrat, and because

he knows how to take it directly to them, he's the one I'll be supporting.

5. Sorry, but "owning the conservatives" isn't the basis for my support...

He did a nice campaign video. What did he tell you about himself and his policies?

[notpolltested]

6. Few people vote on policies. Candidates that folks want to have a beer with tend to win nt

[brooklynite]

8. Fair enough, but the candidate Democratic bloggers want to have a beer with...

...says nothing about his ability to win in a purple-red State like Missouri.

Jason Kander also did a clever ad with a gun. What was the end result?

9. Missouri is a long-shot even with the best candidate, but I want fighters for every seat who will

run the best tactical operation in US political campaign history. That is the only way we stand a chance in 2022. What we did in most races in 2020, 2018, 2016 and 2014 did not work, most acutely on the Senate side which is why where we are were are save a pretty good effort in Georgia that bailed us out to some extent. Look no further than Bill Nelson in 2018 letting Rick Scott pummel him for 6 months unanswered on the airwaves in Spring 2018.

4. All you need to do is pull out a gun and you can be the Republican nominee for any office...

Such as Lauren Boebert in Colorado.

The gun was her ticket to Congress.

7. So, are those the only two candidates for that seat?

I'm not in Missouri, and don't follow Missouri politics.

[notpolltested]

10. No, but I certainly know who I'm supporting on team Blue nt

[MineralMan]

12. Let me know when there are only two candidates.

I don't do primary races in other states than my own in any way. Down that road is madness.

11. He's fantastic!

I just hope MO hasn't gone so far red that it doesn't matter.
