Thoughts on CA-50
So Busby lost.
I thought about writing a post that spun the loss in the Congressional election on tuesday into a positive for the Democrats. I don't think I quite have the energy to do that so instead I'm just going to point out two important things.
1. The Republicans spent 5 million dollars to hold on to a seat in one of the most conservative districts in the country. If they spend that much on every district in November it will set them back $2.1 billion.
2. A loss is still a loss.
