There is very little about Crowley’s campaign that will inspire Hong’s people to volunteer or donate, which is what it takes to actually win an election. His patchy decrepit astroturf ground game is going to be on its own. That’s why I’m afraid he might lose.

On both the state and federal levels, those backed by people power, rather than donors are both more likely to win the general, and to have better policies in office. I also believe that offering the people of Wisconsin permanent affordability will deal fascist creep Republicans a more permanent defeat.
