GOP ads framed the GA race as between a liberal Democrat and a conservative Republican.

So why would any Democrat think we'd have done better if a "real" liberal had run?

Isn't it obvious that Rethugs can't tell the difference between a moderate and a liberal Democrat?

(That's why, while Democrats complain that Pelosi compromises too much, Republicans hate her for being too liberal.)

While many Democrats wanted the race to be a referendum on Trump, Republican ads framed it in a more traditional way: as a race between a conservative Republican and a liberal Democrat.
