    Democrats have been losing statewide elections because they have been churning out lackluster candidates and confusing messaging.

    Hey! Sounds like us next door in Indiana. A few years ago, the Democrats fielded a candidate who had a funny mustache and that was literally what they campaigned on. As in they put it on all the campaign signs. Basically they were saying, “vote for the weirdo!” Good call, Indiana Dems. They’re talking about running him again, by the way.

    I follow our local county Democratic party on Facebook. Do you know what they said when Roe was struck down? Nothing. Do you know what they said when the state banned abortion and gender affirming care for children? Nothing. Do you know what they said when there was a local event to commemorate a man who died in a lynching that had happened 100 years before? Nothing.

    But they do love having their chairman do live video streams where he wears a plaid suit and plays the ukulele.

    I wish I was joking.
