I like Warren and Beto together.

63. All people who didn't vote get a share of blame

Those who voted third party get some.

Those who voted for Trump get an extra helping.

I voted for Clinton but I can take some blame too.
I didn't do absolutely everything I could.
I wore my Clinton T-Shirt in Trumpville.
I voted with enthusiasm, not a bit of nose-holding.
I gave till it hurt.

But did I canvass? No. I did not. Would it have made a difference?

Yes.

I could have been a better anti-bot.

Now I know better and I hope to do better.

I don't think there is much space between us here.


The other issue - I don't see anyone on DU insisting that the nominee be a woman.
But we can express that preference, right? We can open it up for discussion.

Female Democratic Politicians bring a frame of reference that is valuable. When they run they can win and when they win they bring something of value to to the table.

I was excited to vote for HRC, not just because of her qualifications - I was also excited to vote for the first Woman President.

And I want the opportunity to vote for an AA Female President!

I'm at this place where I'm like, "God bless all our candidates and God bless us."

This is some serious Game of Thrones shit we're living.

Except GOT is a great show and this is a shitshow.
