5. Don't assume the "Blue Wave" is anything but a long shot...

I know this makes DU people mad but Dems are STILL barely devoting much time and resources to the extreme likelihood the Repubs will flip another election to keep control of Congress no matter how many races we actually win. We won in 2016, but we lost because we gave up too soon on recounts and court challenges. Russia didn't steal 2016. Republicans did...again.

You better believe the Repubs have everything in place to flip any race that isn't a landslide! So even though we will win, we will lose, if we don't stop wasting time raging about all the cheats and liars inflicting harm and destroying our country. What's done is done. Now is not for self-righteous indignation. We have a landslide election to focus on. No time to waste energy on anything else. A close election is a lost election. We can't just win. We have to win big.

Exact revenge AFTER we win...if we win.
