quote:

Democratic leaders, desperate to compete in red states where their party brand is toxic, are embracing something new this midterm season: not backing Democrats.

In states like Nebraska and Alaska, Democratic officials are, in some cases, looking past their own party’s candidates while subtly encouraging — or even openly promoting — independent candidates they hope can outperform the Democratic label. The Democratic National Committee and some of its allies in Washington are quietly supporting the new strategy.

I don't give two shits what any polls may say.... the Marxist Dems will not gain control in the Senate. Only the insane and degenerate imbeciles living in big blue cities will vote for em.
There's more of us than them.... IMHO

How is this any different from what the Libertarian Party has always been?

It occurred to me the other day that the greatest political trick in our nations history is democrats right on the heels of segregation, Jim Crow and the Civil Rights movement convincing 95% of the black population in this country that segregated voting districts, explicitly drawn to herd them together was in their favor.

Bernie Sanders is an independent. Good luck with that.
