Project Veritas Exposes Democrat U.S. Senate Candidate Who Wanted ‘Secret Sleepers’ to Run as Republicans
[Liberty Daily] Think about the worst thing a U.S. Senate candidate could say on a recorded conversation with a prison inmate. Whatever you thought of, the things Krystle Matthews said were worse and Project Veritas delivered the audio just two days before her runoff to represent Democrats as their U.S. Senate candidate in South Carolina.

"We need some secret sleepers," she said. "Like you need them to run as the other side, even though they for our side. And we need them to win. We need people to run as Republicans in these local elections. This is the only way you’re gonna change the dynamics in South Carolina."

#4 Dems have been doing this for years to 'select' primaries in Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa and Minnesota. The plan usually doesn't work, but sometimes it does. It has a secondary strategy, however.

Run a stealth candidate, make the real conservative expend buckets of time and money during the primaries, thus lessening his/her effectiveness during the real elections.

#5 

When I was working Ga. campaigns in the mid 70's to early 80's. Cross-over voting and paying for a shill candidate to keep the opponent was common. Over the years, the process just got harder with a collection of Campaign Finance Voting law changes.


BTW: Herschel Walker (R) got 413,361 votes compared to Warnocks (LSD) 151,019.

#8 BTW: Herschel Walker (R) got 413,361 votes compared to Warnocks (LSD) 151,019.

Which means Warnock will win in the general election by 557,000 votes. And Raffensperger will say it's all good.

#11 I believe they've been doing this everywhere for years. Run a crazy hard right and a moderate against real Republicans. One might win, or you might just force the Republican to say something that makes people stay home. The left have always treated elections as a war against evil and any tactic however dishonorable is acceptable.

The right on the other hand, well any of them that deny this, or do nothing to stop the tactic can be assumed to be in on it, but protecting their position as long as they can.

#13 Manchurian candidates (RINOS) placed in the Pub Party to create a single party? No wonder things are so screwed up in D.C. Time for a Declaration of Independence 2,0. Time to restore and reaffirm the Bill of Rights and shift power from Washington to the people and States via the 10th Amend. There needs to be term limits and a reformation of the tax struture; a flat tax might be a good approach.

#14 Given their past attempts at cosplaying replubicans, I think the 'sleepers' will be easy to spot by their Tiki Torches.

#16 All you need to know about the authenticity of the demokrat black political class and working the white guilt ATM:

"Matthews complained about black people in South Carolina: “Honestly, these ain’t the same type of black people that I grew up around. I don’t recognize these black people.”

She continued, “Listen, I can’ move in all kind of circles but I’m a n***** at heart…. I’m very much a n***** in a lot of ways, but I know how to turn it off and turn it on.”

#20 They've been doing this at the Presidental level for decades: Mitt Romney, John McCain. I believe there were one or two primary candidates the media was fawning over leading up to the 2016 primary before Trump blew them away. They had no hope in 2020 with Trump.
Generally if the media is fawning over a Republican Candidate leading up to a primary - its a RINO.
