More excuses from this widely disliked politico ran a lackluster campaign, slammed fellow Democratic Party denizens and counted on the urban core to save her after 12 years of neglect . . . Here's her talking points pushed forward without many critical questions by NPR. Take a listen:
McCaskill Blames Senate Defeat On Democratic 'Failure' With Rural America
subscribe to NPR Politics Podcast podcast Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., is about to head home after losing her bid for re-election, and in defeat she's blaming her own Democratic Party for abandoning moderates. McCaskill has represented Missouri in the Senate since 2007. During her tenure, President Obama lost Missouri twice and President Trump won it handily.
ReplyDeleteOf course she blames everyone else, she's just like Hillary! That's why she was defeated, she takes no responsibility!
^^Of course! More Hillary stuff! Yeah, that's good stuff right there baby! Hillary...hrumpf hrumpf hrumpf! Do it!
ReplyDelete^^^ Perpetually offended.
ReplyDelete^^^ Unlike you, who manages to remain perpetually offensive!
ReplyDeletePerhaps a voting record that suggested moderation might have served her well. Voting 95 percent Obamanoid--which is basically what she did for his eight years--is a self-disqualifying act.
ReplyDelete^^Damn right. Offensive to shitheads like you who are so scared you shit your pants at the thought of having to be a productive member of society.
ReplyDelete^^Yes! Keep fighting and keep hating! That is the ticket! Everyone who doesn't share your views is your enemy. The time for revolt is coming! Remember no collusion and keep listening to Fox for further updates!
ReplyDeleteClaire in 24 yea!
ReplyDeleteHer point in the interview that democrat party has abandoned moderates is true. Used to be the Dems cared about American jobs and wages and stuff. Now they just push a transgender and homosexuality agenda - plus liberals love war these days.
ReplyDeleteIt is a sting to lose an election, no doubt, but as a consolation Claire can reflect that she could/should have lost the seat in '12 but for "legitimate" todd akin (and credit her for helping orchestrate that collapse). Plus she's still really rich so that helps.

@ 2:48 is right, the Democratic Party took the moderates for granted and Trump got into office.
ReplyDeleteBut now that the Republican Party has shit on the moderates, things may get interesting in 2020.
Figured your 2018 Taxes yet? Brace yourself!
Thing is mccaskill was never that good but a very LUCKY politician to be in the right place at the right time to win a couple of elections. Big time help from those feckless repubs, first the incompetent george w. bush, then the good ole boys in Missouri who'd rather lose a seat than have Sarah Steelman get it. Josh Hawley kicked her tired ass. mccaskill a moderate? Naw, just another self-serving GRIFTER!!!
ReplyDeleteClaire, one good reason is that you just really aren’t likable. Sure, you schmooze and put on your “down home girl” act, but even then, you still come off as arrogant and mouthy. You had many years to prove yourself, yet, like many other politicians of both parties, you were nothing special and will be easily forgotten.
ReplyDeleteAnd in Missouri, they are singing..."We won't get fooled again!"
