Conor Lamb campaigned:
1. For universal health care
2. Against Trump’s tax cut
3. For expanded background checks
4. For stronger unions
5. Against cuts to Social Security
6. For a woman’s right to choose
7. For medical marijuana

“Conservative Democrat.” Ok. Cool.

12. There had been some rumors that he wasn't going to run again

And hunting around, their big primary is August 14, 2018 so he has a little bit of time to decide (based on some of their other elections, it looks like they have to file about 3 months before the election, so possibly by sometime in May we will know).

3. Ask Ryan--in Lamb's presence--if he thinks Lamb will vote for him for Speaker when he has the chance

Then Ryan will see if Lamb is a Republican or not.

(The Republicans just spent over $10 million trying to DEFEAT Lamb. Is Ryan SURE Lamb is a Republican?)

4. Monday they said Lamb was a radical

Nancy Pelosi-loving liberal. Today he's a good conservative.

5. That's why they're contesting the result

Stupid fuck!

6. They can't get their spin straight!

7. Anything's better than acknowledging a loss

Ryan's dodge, though, implies (1) Pennsylvania voters are stupid; and (2) Republicans threw a shit-ton of money at this race, trying to beat a Republican. I'm sure Trump's already in "Rick Who?" mode, so it would be nice if a reporter could ask Speaker Ryan about these implications in the face of his assertion that a Republican won last night in Pennsylvania.

8. His dear leader called him a sham.
