@jonathanweisman Opponents basically ran a traditional GOP campaign, with ads designed to appeal to Fox viewers. When they needed D voters. -
@pkcapitol@jonathanweisman interesting since Mark Putnam was their ad guy -
@HotlineJosh@pkcapitol They did a bang-up job keeping GOP in line, which didn't take much. Ever since Bibi speech, this has been politics -
@jonathanweisman@pkcapitol not sure if this ad is particularly ideological (https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=16&v=rifQLpX_vtk …). -
@jonathanweisman@pkcapitol challenge has always been between loyalty to president vs. public opinion (& intensity therein). -
@HotlineJosh@jonathanweisman@pkcapitol Getting Ds to join Rs in sinking signature Obama deal that HRC supports always going 2b tough -
