Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chair Steve Israel’s message is obvious for an growing quantity of Democrat candidates who wish to win in November: steer clear of the Democrat’s national convention.
Joe Manchin, Governor Earl Ray Tomblin and Repetition. Nick Rahall of W.Veterans administration. are remaining away, in addition to Pennsylvania’s Mark Critz, New York’s Kathy Hochul and Bill Owens. It’s as though Obama is tossing a celebration and key Dems say, no thanks, I’ll pass.
“A vacation to Charlotte now might be interesting,” , “why leave your districts?”
a “gathering to fete Obama,” then continues to it “an especially sensitive problem for Democratic candidates….” That might be the very first time anybody has ever stated a Democrat inside a tight race had been “sensitive.”
(F)our times of interacting with Democratic leaders could switch off independent voters prior to the November 6 election … Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill, among the Democratic Party’s most vulnerable candidates, won’t attend, an aide stated.
Dems Senator John Tester won’t also be attending. Dems lost 63 seats to Republicans empowered through the Tea Party movement this year. Scott Master lately won a recount with a bigger margin than he initially won the election. If Dems aspire to turn that momentum around in November, the sitting Leader, Obama, is probably not really part of the process.
