At today’s press conference announcing national Democrats’ new slogan, Nancy Pelosi announced their intention to take their message “on the road.” Someone may want to check in with 2018 Senate Democrats to make sure they’re taking the news ok.
Democrats doubled down on the same tired policies that have resulted in them losing over 1,000 federal and state legislative seats. Even worse for their electoral prospects, Democrats are sticking with the same failed leadership that guided them to historic minorities. On a stage filled exclusively with politicians from blue states, Democrats paraded a group of speakers who are most responsible for their out-of-touch image, including San Francisco liberal Nancy Pelosi, New York liberal Chuck Schumer, and Massachusetts radical Elizabeth Warren. So when Democrats take this hilarious show on the road as they promised, will they be welcomed by 2018 Democrats like Claire McCaskill in Missouri, Joe Manchin in West Virginia, Joe Donnelly in Indiana, Heidi Heitkamp in North Dakota or Jon Tester in Montana? Things sure could get awkward!
“When Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Elizabeth Warren take their show on the road to ‘help’ their red state colleagues, they’re in for a bit of a shock,” said NRSC Spokesman Bob Salera. “Democrats are recycling the same failed policies and same failed leaders that have already been rejected time and again by voters across the country, and a new slogan is not going to change that fact.”
