    Facing an energized GOP base after Kavanaugh, Dems quickly try to shift focus onto health care - and away from Supreme Court fight. Voters, Van Hollen said, “are not worried about the Kavanaugh hearings. ...Rising health care costs are their No. 1 concern”https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/09/politics/health-care-midterms-senate-democrats/index.html …

        Why are Dems shifting focus away from Kavanaugh? His appointment should motivate more democratic voters to turn out than ever before in history. And it isn’t unrelated to healthcare costs either, as Kavanaugh opposes coverage for people with disabilities & preexisting conditions.

        Manu, come on...you know everyone was distracted for 3-4 weeks. It's now the last month before the midterms. Healthcare, etc, was always the plan for the campaign. Not a new shift out of concern.

        Indeed, the remaining parts of the ACA are at risk. American families need to #VoteBlue if they want any chance of healthcare improvements.

        I think this is a bad strategy. I mean, Dems are worried about multiple things. We've been multitasking since Nov 2016, and the Kavanaugh thing has us fired the f*ck up and counting the days until Nov 6th. Now they want us to just forget about that? F*CK NO.

        An energized GOP base? Sure.... What about enraged women of all political persuasions? Look at the polls, don't listen to the Beltway media echo chamber.

        Why aren't Dem's driving home the fact that the GOP IS coming after Social Security and Medicare? The latest AARP magazine lists the top 3 reasons to vote as: #1. Social Security #2. Rising drug costs #3. Medicare If the GOP wins in November, they will gut all three.

        What energized GOP base? CNN’s latest poll, completed after Kavanaugh confirmation, shows Democratic voters highly enthused and the Democratic Party with a huge advantage on the generic ballot.https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/09/politics/cnn-poll-midterms/index.html …

        Oh, I care deeply about #healthcare, but the RAGE & FURY I will hold in my heart for the rest of my life about the #KavanaughConfirmationHearings, will not only send me to the polls on Nov. 6th, it will guide me to canvass, phone bank, and donate to ALL #RedToBlue candidates!!

        Man you just buy the GOP talking points hook line and sinker huh? Your own polling doesn't even suggest an energized GOP base. The majority of the country did not want him confirmed. Do better.

        Wrong move. Mobilizing voters should be about ending GOP stranglehold... period. The rest are post-midterm details.
