Whack-a-Mole

Following up on a post from earlier this month, it is ever clearer that Republican strategy is to offer a slate of candidates running the gamut from heartless to clueless to extraordinarily inept. On purpose.

Because, apparently, their concern lies not with good, rational governance but instead with letting Democrats know just how angry they are about… everything. The worse the candidate, the better.

They are willing to let the union go to hell just to prove a point. The point being?

Races that in more sane times one might think wouldn’t be close (or happening at all) are turning into nailbiters. Raphael Warnock in a dead heat with Herschel Walker? John Fetterman in a dead heat with Dr. Oz. Ron Johnson in a statistical dead heat with his Democratic challenger. The list goes on, across the nation.

Let’s cut to the chase: we are heading toward a day of reckoning. The healing did not begin, nor was anything settled at Appomattox.
