I understand it is for you but abortion is not the only issue that most Americans care about or vote on. Actually it is not at the top of list for many. Make no mistake that the Democratic Party is the closest to a universal healthcare party of the 2 major parties and considering their recent tax bill, make no mistake that the Republican Party remains the party most willing to provide the greatest benefits to the rich.
When all else fails yell “ABORTION!”dvdjs:
You always say this about things, most of which are not debunked by you or anyone else.
Of course, you admit it anyway; that while the locals like him, the party itself is so far to the left it won’t accept him. And it’s not just AHA, DACA and Obama. It’s abortion; the true religion of the Dem party. He’s prolife, seemingly the only prolife Dem congressman left. So naturally he doesn’t belong. Natually NARAL backed his opponent, which meant that the Dem party would too.
But at some point, even the rich start to worry about fighting cancer and long-term care costs.
“I hate Illinois Nazis…” - Jake BluesTheo520:
I really haven’t meant many Illinois Nazis since moving here, but Jones seems to be a Wisconsin Nazi that wandered south.
He was the only choice on the ballot, his family or maybe a token neighbor could have voted and made him the GOP candidate.
I said that the local party officials favored him.
You stated something very different:
The “because” goes beyond the scope of what you know, evidenced by the fact that you are now admitting that:
You have stated that the Democratic Party only stands for abortion rights. You have been corrected on that. poin. You go on to say repeat it to up the ante:
I think that sentiment expressed about a third of your fellow citizens is wrong and far more slanderous, at face value, than the comments about American citizens that have come from HRC, or Obama, and that you love to twist and harp on an on about
Used to be.
How has it changed? I am not surprised if it has. I used to attend a parish built by the Irish on the north side that likely has become decidedly less Irish, at least it was 30 years ago when I lived there.
Earlier threads on the race - noting the reluctance of the of the DNCC to support also noted that hte district had become more liberal, voting for Sanders in the primary, and had a strong shift in demographics to more recent immigrants groups, IIRC.

That might mean nothing to you, but it’s a big thing to me and a lot of other Catholics. if you don’t want to hear it, you probably should find a site that isn’t Catholic. You wouldn’t go into the home of a Jew and pull out a bacon sandwich and eat it in front of them. Neither should you deride Catholic belief on this site.
I live in a district where the republican party barely has a pulse. The republican candidate for Congress is always some unknown. My guess is that very few people knew this guy was a neo-nazi. They likely voted for him because they hated democrats. If someone has data to the contrary, I will stand corrected.
I agree that the local republican party does have some responsibility here.
it is not that saying it that is a problem. It’s that what you are saying is wrong and slanderously so.
For some, probably, at least to the extent it’s more important to them than their professed religion. Likely the percentage who vote for abortion candidates have either had abortions themselves or were complicit in one.
So now Hispanic Catholics are not to be counted among Catholics?
