Handel's win guarantees Repubs pass AHCA and tax reform

They have nothing to fear except the base's wrath during a primary. They can do whatever they want while in office and their idiot voters will still support them no mater how much worse they make their voters' lives. The next 19 months are going to be hell for us all.

This was not supposed to be an at risk seat at all. I know second place is still losing but, for repubs who are at risk, this is not what they wanted to see.

Played it up as a referendum on Trump. How are we not going to be disheartened by the results?

I'm am really, truly bummed. I live in the south and was really hoping to see some enlightenment happening around here. But, the repubs have a lot more experience in the down ticket races. It's going to take some time for us to get it together.
