You will get what you voted for. "For the first time in four elections, independent voters went for the party in power, not out of power. For the first time in a very long time, a sizable portion of the GOP voted Democrat". Again, being redundant and repetitive, the forthcoming economic chaotic meltdown (will be dystopian) will be laid upon the Dem Socialists front porch. Whistle blowers and conscious will prove in due time. Selah

In Arizona the people are demanding a recount. If you can’t see the cheating you are blind.

Amen to all of this!

Eric, the main problem, as I view it, is that Republicans were poorly prepared for this election, as was the case in in Loeffler/Perdue races.

The Dems figured out that it takes more than paying costly consultants and running constant radio and TV ads.

#1 if you plan to win, you not only have to excite your anticipated voters, be they Republicans, independents, and Democrats. Attacking the Democrats is good, to a point, but drop attack ads two weeks prior to the election. Then start running ads explain what the candidate plans to do if elected.

#2 Perhaps this should be tied with #1: get a REAL ground game going early and do not stop until about three hours before the polls close. The GOP claimed they had a ground game. They didn't.

You must identify and contact them. If you need to spend $20-million to pay people to go door-to-door, do it. Cut the ad budget by $10 million on a House race and $45 million on a Senate race. It's more complex than that but I'm trying to hit on the basics.

Thanks Much,

Tommy

Erick, during the last part of your 2nd hour on radio today, you took a call from an independent voter who voted for Kemp, but then voted for Warnock. She explained, I believe, that she wants to see the GOP divest itself of Trump. I understand her thinking but voting for Warnock is giving the Democrats a thumbs-up. How can we help get Walker across the line, Dec. 6th? The shenanigans the Democrats will do for two years if they can get rid of the fillibuster will be horrid. A 50-50 Senate with some sane help from a few sane Democrats is better than a 51-49, Dem-Repub Senate, I believe. What must Walker do in the few short weeks remaining? Chuck Schumer is already claiming that the Democrats have a 'mandate', which if facts ever intervened is a silly assertion.

Erick, all this speculation is fine and dandy. But you forgot to mention the big elephant in the room: MONEY! Maybe a couple of hundred million that was hidden through various entities and doled out around the country to Dem candidates. One big piece of evidence is Mark Kelly's 75 million $ spent in Arizona versus poor Blake Masters' 9 mil. Where did the money come from? Google FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, and the relationship with money flowing from US Taxpayers to Ukraine to FTX to SBF's many organizations to the Democrat Party. If this unholy alliance is true, and it looks increasingly so, then it boils down to the US taxpayer financing the Democratic Party in the 2022 Midterms to save their miserable asses.

Many here have implicated mail-in voting as the source of cheating. Erick expresses far more support for the process saying that there is little evidence of mail-in voter fraud. But it doesn’t matter. The obvious fact is that mail-in voting is exponentially more susceptible to voter fraud than voting in person at the polling place under observation. There is a reason the bank keeps its money in the vault instead of laying it on a table in the reception area. So even if mail-in voting is fully reliable, as long as there are millions of ballots being mailed to people, the public will NEVER have confidence in the process. And as for the absence of “evidence” of mass mail-in voter fraud, it’s a specious argument. In order to develop such evidence, there would have to be an investigation. But even if a government agreed to such an investigation, it would be technically impossible to perform. It simply couldn’t be done. So in the end, a government we don’t trust is telling us to simply accept the integrity of a process that we should obviously not trust. Mail-in voting and a public confidence are opposites. The more mail-in voting, the less public confidence in the process. That is the problem properly defined.

What are your thoughts on Jon Burns in the Georgia House? Does school choice face a better path forward in Georgia with Ralston no longer in leadership?

I don't want Trump to be the nominee in 2024 either. However, if the conclusion is that in order to win, we have to elect "republicans" who go along with the democrats most of the time, stick with the establishment which promises that this time it will be different and they will actually kind of head back towards the constitution, then sit on their hands, and who will not take a stand against some of the most egregious ills of the country, then, no, let the democrats burn it down. They are close anyhow.

So Erick’s ultimate conclusion is that the entirety of the voting nation stuck closely with the Democrats just to avoid the chaos associated with the Republican Party. Right or wrong, what is the solution to that? Absolutely none. That is because the vast majority of the political chaos was the creation of the left. How do we control the chaos they create?? Yes Trump had some real problems, but 60% of the chaos was the left’s reaction to him. MTG has some weaknesses, but 85% of the chaos associated with her is a creation of the left. So applying Erick’s hypothesis, all the left has to do is create mass chaos in response to every good Republican candidate in order to defeat them. So just wait! Without question, the left will begin a campaign of mass hysteria, chaos of biblical proportions over Ron DeSantis. By the time they are through, DeSantis will take the place of Satan as the source of all evil on Earth.

"Independent voters really are tired of the chaos and were afraid Republican candidates would introduce even more chaos."

With the inflation initiated with J Biden's EOs on 1-20-2021 there will be a big ravaging economic chaos yet to come. The economic destruction forthcoming, the Repubs can then be thankful, that the said tsunami of chaos will be placed upon the Dems front porch. Today Amazon said will be laying off about 10K people. That is the tip of the berg. Disney putting out APBs also.

Other companies will be following soon. Some Bank failure's will be coming soon also. Can you now connect the dots and prepare accordingly? The Fat lady still has not sung. Selah

Erick and the people on here please I implore you please wake up. Those that say we have and free and fair elections are you serious? As I said in a response to someone on here if you are saying there is no cheating then you are saying this country is finished. We have a President with dementia and Pennsylvania elected an invalid. Either Democrats are stupid morons or there was cheating? There is no other option. Which is it? I choose to believe my eyes and hears and choose to apply critical thinking.

Feels like the Empire is firmly in control. Fascinating voter behavior. I think we fail to recognize the horrendous persuasion influence of a biased mainstream corporate media. It seems that maybe democracy is dead as we no longer have a news media, but a propaganda arm of the Democrat political apparatus.

I debate Manhattan moderates and they are generally quite uninformed about many things that would paint the Biden Democrats and Democrats in general as the reckless hazards they are. For example, the deny there is a crisis at the southern border. They deny that inflation is bad and that it is caused by corporations over-charging customers and not Biden Democrat over-spending and forcing energy costs to skyrocket. They deny that there is an increase in crime.

They read the NYT and watch NPR. Their social media feeds are tuned by the algorithms to feed them ideologically-confirming memes.

They are so far gone that their heads explode with criticism of what they claim to know.

So just a few months ago 8 out of 10 anti-Trump incumbent Republicans lost their election. But then after more evidence of Biden Democrat destruction and incompetence, they changed their minds?
