Halperin: GA-06 Loss an ‘Unmitigated Disaster’ for Dems

EXCERPT:

HALPERIN: "This is an unmitigated disaster for the Democrats who are about eight of the way through --"
SCARBOROUGH: "OK. Yeah."
HALPERIN: "-- Donald -- through Donald --"
BRZEZINSKI: "There you go." [crosstalk]
HALPERIN: "-- through Donald Trump’s term. We’re an eighth of the way through. I mean, could they recruit a better candidate than Ossoff? The problem is, it's easy to say if you've got a strong party, we're going to recruit candidates to match the districts. But the liberal wing of the party is ascendant. And so in a lot of the primaries that are coming up that will determine who their nominees are, they can’t recruit and be sure they’re going to get nominees who are the perfect fit. They’re going to get a lot of liberal nominees, a lot of nominees who are maybe too liberal to win. So the only silver lining the Democrats I think can look at here is Ossoff wasn’t the perfect candidate."
