    Coal miners used to carry caged canaries down into the mines to test for carbon monoxide. The idea was to detect a problem before it harmed humans. This is a metaphor for Republicans. After PA-18, the canary is on life-support.https://www.thedailybeast.com/pa-18-message-to-gop-its-time-to-dump-trump?ref=author …

        It's like dumping the cement shoes you're wearing when you find yourself in the East River. Nice idea, but hard to do.

        Dems don't have many Connor Lambs. Which is a shame. If they did it'd be a much better party.

        To win in a northern blue state the Dems had to run Zell Miller. Seems less than straight forward who’s at a cross roads.
