The Wisconsin thing is bad but how is “right” wing to blame for Chicago. Chicago has ALWAYS been a democrat strong hold. The bigger question is how did the Dems swing so far and the rank and file be ok with it.

From what was said in other threads, most groups supported the other candidate but the teacher union got behind this one.

When public employee unions are the kingmakers in politics, you are inherently fricked.

the loser had endorsement from police. his supporters included RINOs.
the winner was endorsed by teachers.

no one has posted anything actually commie by the winner or even a story about, the winner being a commie.

how useful to be informed they are SUPER left.
no examples.
my housemate says the Wisconsin winner is ok with abortion rights and the loser is not. nothing about communism.

Because the other side (us conservatives) are “Nazis.” So, it’s “vote for us, or vote for the Nazis.” Swing voters and moderate left of center Dems fall for it, hold their noses and pull the lever for the D. I’m not buying for two seconds that moderate conservatives are voting for them though.
