If we want to win in 2016...

We need to GOTFV.

Not just among DUers, but also the broader population that is less engaged. If we vote, we win.

Candidates are important, positions are important, anf history is important.

But if our activism doesn't result in turnout across the non-Right spectrum, we'll lose.

1. I just wish voters weren't so fickle.

It scares me that they go back sand forth between parties every eight years of at least have mostly in the last 50 years. Democratic politician must convince voters that another 4 years of a democratic president is in their best interest and ignore historical trends.

2. A-men.

We have to educate and inspire. It takes constant effort.

Teapubbies use FUD.

5. Unfortunately, teapubbies aren't the only people spreading FUD. n/t

3. I plan on voting.

I've never missed an election on any level.

6. Good on you!

Now do as the Alex Harvey lyric said, and "bring all your friends and neighbours too"!

4. And we need to win MORE than just the Presidency.

Without at least one house of congress and some turnover at the state level, whoever is POTUS will get nowhere.

7. Top to bottom, local state and national.
