you ve got to win texas, if you lose florida, it s over. the republicans have a much heavier lift. the democrats just run really bad candidates except for obama and clinton who were both great candidates. i think republicans are the ones in the hole every electoral season. i agree. with one of these big states in the trump majority, he s in big trouble. it s very important what you said about democrats, about putting more money in people s possibilities and making their lives better. that s how jimmy carter became president. that s how clinton became president. i believe that s how obama came president with the economy tanking under george bush at the end. these democrats are running on ideology. it s not about how to make a blue collar guy s life better. it s about how do they change what s american and i think that s a very dangerous route. laura: kevin, does that appeal to the voters that didn t turn out last time? are there enough of the new immigrants and more radical democrat
