It is so goddamn refreshing to see Democrats, at long last, finding some sort of spine as the 2026 midterm elections head to a close. Refreshing, and kinda disappointing, because they could've done this years ago and instead allowed Republicans to define toughness as macho posturing bullshit.
Certainly, this newfound lack of fucks to give is primarily the province of newcomers. Like Michigan senatorial candidate Abdul El-Sayed, who fucking nails it:
how does ohio boy vance keep walking right into the buzzsaw of one of the midwest's most Ancient Tribal Hatreds. dog no one in michigan cares what your OSU ass has to say

The author of that Bluesky skeet goes on to drop some absolutely spot-on analysis:
More El-Sayed. More Coach Walz calling 'em freaks. And no more pearl-clutching Jeffries, Schumer, and the centrist Dem establishment.
Sweep the leg. Humiliate them. And make them wear your contempt like a goddamn hairshirt.

Ahhh yes, the famously successful Walz playbook.
ReplyDeletethe walz playbook never got used. as soon as he became the veep nominee he was neutered by the centrist dipshits that ran the campaign. had they let walz cook, i believe things would have played out differently. his early truth-telling about the gop freak show was cutting through the noise. hell, it’s why he got on the radar in the first place.
