Checking in on the Indispensable Men
Looks like an even 20 will be qualifying for the first Dem debates:
20 Democrats have qualified for the first debates on June 26-27. Barring any late polls tonight or donor surprises tomorrow, the DNC won't need tiebreakers to sort out who's in and who's out. Bad news is for Steve Bullock, who remains 1 poll short. https://t.co/2iR3qMJKwo pic.twitter.com/rQ1i9Wu5Cz— Geoffrey Skelley (@geoffreyvs) June 12, 2019
So, in summary, Steve Bullock is apparently passing up a winnable Senate race in an election where Democrats need to contest any remotely winnable race as hard as possible, and this has resulted in a three-way tie for last in a 23 person field with 1)a 130-year-old conspiracy nut whose Twitter feed has been taken over by two failsons doing Baby’s First Chomsky and 2)the dipshit who led the failed attempt to replace Nancy Pelosi with a random more conservative white guy to be named later. He’s trailing even most of the other pointless generic white guy with no possible national constituency campaigns. Personally, that wouldn’t give me much of an ego boost but perhaps I’m missing something.
