(13,305 posts)1. Let's hope those we elect don't squander this hard work and effort.
Something tells me all of these energized young people aren't going to be lectured about "civics lessons" and obscure parliamentary procedures, and whining about needing to preserve the precious fee-fees of 1 or 2 red state Dems.
They've seen what a political party can do even without a mandate and without an 80 vote supermajority, and they are going to demand that our leaders listen and do what they need to.
They aren't going to accept "Relax, we've got this." or 20 level chess or whatever excuses. So let's make sure the people who we send to Washington on the wave of this energy and motivation and passion don't do that to those that sent them.
