...why it's been a foregone conclusion that Jones will lose this thing.

It seems he and I are the only two people in America that gives him a chance in hell.

but certainly people should use this poll to slide a few more bucks Jones way.

Bottom line is he is an outstanding human being and deserves our support.

are reporting nearly a 20 point lead for Tubby.
It appears to be a bs tweet.

If you want to send money, send it to a candidate where it will make a difference.

There may be more disgust among Republican voters than they are comfortable saying out loud. Reasonable alternatives to Republican assholes may get more consideration this year.

Because he did the right thing when he voted to convict. I did not expect him to have a chance.

If true, or even within 5 points, I will send some more. If not, I will continue to focus on tough but winnable seats that need money, like Iowa, Montana and Alaska. And state legislature races where we can flip for redistricting.

It has been a tough year financially but I have been donating as much as I can.
