I will ask again. Social Security & Medicare vs Billionaire Tax Cuts

WHERE. ARE. THE. ADS?

Sen. McConnell has delivered us one of the easiest, most effective election advertisements in modern history.

Why is this not being used?

Am I missing them?

Did the Democratic Party use the "New Coke" focus group that preferred the taste of goat spit?

What is going on?

It's come up in my local races.

I know folks still seem to want a "Democratic National Message" but that's kind of unneccessary.

Your concern is duly noted, but I don't share it.

A chance to flip a Senate seat and... nothing. Likewise in my local House race. Never mentioned.

Yes, a national message on this IS necessary and the lack of it has probably cost us control of the Senate.
