Florida GOP Bobby Olszewski, won a special election to serve as the newest member of the Florida House. His own party was trying to keep him out of office. So was the Florida Chamber of Commerce and the Central Florida Hotel & Lodging Association.

A Dem named Paul Chandler filed on his own. The GOP accused him of being ineligible to run. Democrats urged him to drop out of the race — and called him “malicious” when he didn’t. Chandler did finally drop out, but only after his name had been printed on all the ballots. So when a brave replacement finally stepped up, he didn’t have money, time — or even his own name on the ballot. Yet despite all that — 44 percent of voters still voted Democratic.

This is why Democrats keep losing. Because, while rallies, protests and petitions are great for rallying the troops,
if you don’t
if you don’t
give them candidates to rally behind, you simply can’t win.
