Dems Think Ticket to Victory Is to Hide Who They Are

RUSH: This is how asinine things are getting. I have two stories here. They both bounce off of the special election that happened in the 18th district of Pennsylvania on Tuesday where the Democrat, Conor Lamb, running as a conservative Republican, happened to oust by a very narrow margin — the Republican hasn’t conceded in that race yet, right? They’re talking recount or maybe — anyway, as we sit here today, the Democrat wins it, pro-gun, pro anti-immigration, in every way, this guy was a Republican running against another Republican.

And so we have a story here. The first is from — they’re both Politico but two different stories. “Pelosi in Peril?” This is Michael Allen. “Top Democrats tell me that if they take back the House in November, a restoration of Speaker Nancy Pelosi is no longer guaranteed. In fact, some well-wired House Democrats predict she will be forced aside after the election and replaced by a younger, less divisive Democrat.”

There’s no such thing as a less divisive Democrat! Not a real one. There’s no such thing as a less divisive Democrat. They are all the same. Anybody else would be a faux Democrat. A less divisive Democrat is gonna be a pretender Democrat. Anyway, “The big picture: Conor Lamb, 33, won his U.S. House race in Pennsylvania this week after saying he wouldn’t vote for Pelosi, a new template for Democrat moderates.”

Then this other story: “More Democrats likely to disavow Pelosi after Pennsylvania stunner. Conor Lamb’s success could provide a blueprint for other Democrats in tough races.”

Okay. They want us to believe that the Democrats are all now gonna moderate and they’re all gonna become Conor Lambs, and they’re all gonna become a variation of conservative Republican or a variation of Trump-lite, depending on the district. So this is the mistake they make. They take one race here, they’ve been thinking that these special elections are all gonna go their way. One finally does, and it’s still not over. And they think they stumbled across the formula for retaking the House. Do these people have any idea what’s gonna happen to them if they start moderating their extremist, radical, left-wing agenda?

If they try to turn this party in the November campaign into a bunch of Conor Lambs running for the House, the backlash from the mainstream of the American Democrat Party and left is gonna be so bad, these people are gonna end up losing seats in the House, if they think the ticket is to go out and find a bunch of other Democrats to run as Conor Lamb did.
