“The stage is set, and I do believe that Tennesseans are determined to claw back decency, self-respect, and common sense from the most corrupt and dangerous president in American history.” That’s according to Albert Arnold Gore, former sidekick to traitor John Kerry, and now apparently the self-appointed arbiter of “decency, self-respect, and common sense.”
Gore was among the high-profile leftists that Demos rolled out in Tennessee to rally mostly urban Nashville constituents in Tuesday’s special congressional election.
Recall that last month, Gore was among those claiming that Donald Trump was “Hitler” and doing what Demos do best: fomenting hate and division.
He and other Demos have been promoting that strategy in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District for weeks.
The 7th District election was to fill the seat of my friend Mark Green, who resigned to pursue a business opportunity in what has been a very conservative district.
The Republican candidate was Matt Van Epps, a state commissioner who is a distinguished West Point graduate and former SpecOps combat helicopter pilot and Air Mission Commander. His opponent was an unaccomplished leftist, Aftyn Behn, a Tennessee state rep and professional “community organizer” from Nashville — a city she previously declared she “hates” in a state she claims is “racist.”
Behn is the archetypal “emotionally incontinent idiot” Demos field to rally their core constituency of emotionally incontinent idiots. She advocates gender confusion and supports men competing in women’s sports.
For weeks, Democrats and their Leftmedia publicists have churned the headlines that this special election was going to be “razor thin” and their leftist candidate would prevail.
For some district background, in November 2024, with Donald Trump on the ballot, Mark Green defeated his Democrat congressional opponent — the disgraced former mayor of Nashville, Megan Barry — with 60% of the vote. In November 2022, Mark also defeated Democrat nominee Odessa Kelly with 60% of the vote.
Clearly, in recent-year regular election cycles, this has been a 60-40 district. But part of that district is in Nashville, where Demos like Gore effectively rallied their disgruntled base.
The result was an Epps victory margin of nine points, six points less than Green’s recent victories. However, while a point nine election spread would constitute the “razor thin” margin Demos predicted, a nine point spread is not that.
Democrats threw everybody and everything they had to turn this district, but they still lost big.
Today, some leftist publications are still promoting the GOP jitters after the election, as if it were a point nine spread. Indeed, there are lessons here, including the fact that Trump has a lot of cleanup to do on the “affordability” issue.
Next up will be all the Demo and media churn on Georgia’s 14th Congressional District special election for the seat being vacated in January by Marjorie Taylor Green, a district she won with 64% of the vote in 2024.
