We're all against fascism, right?
We may have different opinions on other stuff, but certain things we do agree on. If a Dem. candidate can key in on those things that unite us, then he or she deserves our support. We're in a very tight race and we're running out of time. If we don't get it done this year, there may not be another chance.
Please understand that we have an opportunity this November to convince many GOP members to vote blue, if we can get moderate candidates on the slate. There is at least some disaffection and they're starting to see the cracks in their party, maybe they can be convinced to switch this year. Our candidates should be people who can reach across party lines and unify all Americans. It won't be easy!
