About two years ago, Democrat Connor Lamb won a special election to Congress in Western PA. He was re-elected in November 2018. He ran as a moderate who would not go along with the Pelosi agenda. In office, however, Lamb votes with Pelosi about 95% of the time. As of six months ago Lamb was nevertheless rated a likely winner in 2020.
Things have changed. Republican Sean Parnell was chosen as Lamb’s opponent. Parnell is a military hero and a great speaker. He has great support in the district. Last quarter he raised more cash than Lamb by nearly 2 to 1. Lamb is getting panicky. Lamb’s campaign spokesman sent out a tweet telling Parnell that he should “die and burn in hell”. That spokesman is also Lambs brother. So far Lamb has kept silent about the tweet.
If the GOP has any way to retake control of the House, it requires Parnell to bear Lamb. So far it looks pretty good.
