Be conducted. i think jon ossoff run as good a campaign as he could have. this soo republican district. the fact is democrats, progressives, liberals, poured a lot of money into this race and still not able to convert. doesn't mean in 2018 in the midterms they don't have a shot at taking back the house of representatives but tonight is a night for republicans. >> let me ask you about south carolina. it was supposed to be a land slide for the republicans. it was only by 2,000 votes. what does that say to you? >> so i like to put this in golf terms. a par is a par is a par. which is a win is a w...

But they're not going to win back the house of representatives if they try to run a national campaign. they're going to have to run these individual races, 25 of them in order to take back the house. and that's extremely important because then they're going to be able to cause all kind of havoc on the white house. so while this is a depressing time for democrats, i'm pretty sure these deep pocketed donors are going to continue digging down deep to try to do what they can to cause havoc and chaos for donald trump as best that they can do. so democrats, while they need to figure out where they'r...

Quarters in atlanta. democrats across the country thought they could pull it off. they didn't. a very different move tonight at ossoff head quarters. >> reporter: there's a lot of disappointment, i'll tell you that in talking to some folks who have been with the ossoff campaign that very beginning for months. dabing away a few tears here and there. i see some people enjoying beers behind me. they're not as disappointed as you might think and part of that is because just talking to people they really felt they were part of something and they were just proud to even get close. i think they're so...

You're hearing from handel's supoureders is that no amount of money can buy an election. it was something you heard handelsay as jon ossoff continues to bring in millions of millions of dollars, 23 million in fact as we talk about this race being the most expensive in the history of the house of representatives. but when karen handeltook the stage after all the t's were crossed so that her campaign was confident it was the move to put her on stage, she had a very different tone. you heard her really bring up to light all the negative of jon ossoff that he lived outside the district, he didn't ...
