Their two "lean red" districts could be ripe for the picking by Dems.  

Edwards has dropped his re-election campaign.  Miller, who's a mess if the allegations are true, insists he's staying in the race.  

Spineless Mike Johnson seems reluctant to weigh in.  He no doubt has to wait for his boss to provide talking points.

"IF"?

It's three women saying essentially the same thing. Saw the guy talking last night. Yeah, he's that kinda guy. Where do we find these people?

@larsiu the worst of the worst are politicians.  In every way.  Less gov. Less taxes.  Starve them

Yes, and it's both parties. We've got to get to a point where most in our society view credible allegations of abuse as disqualifying for elected office, regardless of qualifications and ideology.  It's the only way we'll weed this shit out.

Yeah. I'm trying real hard to separate politicians from bureaucrats. B/c i think we need bureaucrats. But they seem to blend together these days. Bureaucrats used to be pretty non-political. Not anymore.

I don't agree with Scott Jennings on a lot of issues, but he basically said Miller needs to step aside because of all this.  

 

He's not looking good with all these appearances he's been making.

"car crash" is right. That guy just can't help making things exponentially worse for himself. At this point, anyone working in Communications on his staff should be unemployable when he either steps down or loses in November.

Articles like this are so stupid. Cherrypicking a few voters and using them anecdotally to draw conclusions is poor reasoning. Just because a few people make these statements doesn't mean that it will necessarily move the needle (see 2016).

Has the Guardian also determined that Abdul El Sayed is going to lose some historical democratic voters because he aligns with Hasan Piker and some of his historical statements on America, Israel, etc.? Of course it hasn't.

That being said, your point isn't wrong. If it comes out that any of these domestic allegations are true, he is (and better be) toast. There's no place for people like that in public office, regardless of their politics.

@jdb Agreed.  Not just poor reasoning but poor reporting. 

Anecdotal evidence is usually of limited value.  It's lazy and weak support for an argument, and often appears in this forum (for example, "five guys at work all believe that ...").

Agreed and fwiw, I'm well aware that many outlets are doing this type of stuff on both sides of the aisle. I just found it particularly bad given the opening.
