The blue-blood, fiscally conservative and socially liberal establishment is fooling itself if it believes otherwise, irrespective of the outcome of any elections. They’re also deluding themselves if they think they can demonize and alienate Christian values voters (who, btw, have now been proved correct all along), and pick up enough independent and democrat votes to overcome that massive loss.That won’t happen. A vote for the uniparty is a vote for the uniparty. So, we either stay home, or we are very, very selective of who we vote for.

There are indeed many bad candidates. And the outcome of the election is indeed uncertain. But not necessarily for the reasons Mitch might’ve meant, or the candidates he might’ve had in mind.
