our breaking news this morning, democrat conor lamb declares victory in pennsylvania's special congressional election. a race that's just too close to call. until all the votes are counted. but it should have been a slam dunk for republicans. back with me now mark preston, bakari sellers, amanda carpenter, scott jennings, symone sanders and jack kingston. >> you wanted to rebut something jack was talking about, symone? >> it's so late i don't even remember what jack said. i just want to say this. i want to reiterate that conor lamb did not run republican light. he did run as a democrat. and i think what this means for democrats in 2018 is that you can run good races with good candidates and solid messaging and great ground games. but we have to do the work to identify good candidates and to make sure we are going out there reaching people where they are.
