Arizona

Arizona is a GOP-leaning swing state, but Democrats are gaining, and it could swing Biden's way in 2024. Dem Senate candidate Ruben Gallego joins Rick to talk about his AZ race, the crazies who might run against him, and how he plans to win. And this episode's entry on the enemies list is an old name, but they're still near the top of the list.

Joe and Alex are joined by TargetSmart CEO Tom Bonier and Simon Rosenberg to break down what we actually saw in the 2022 midterms. How did a new tool help crush the narrative of the Red Mirage? And why did the media stay so locked in on the Red Wave idea? (They did their own research!) Turns out hopium on our side was more like... copium from theirs. How bad was the MAGA hangover? And what's the future of the Democratic coalition - why does it all come back to Arizona? Finally - a quick look at Georgia. How do we see the runoff shaping up?
