Please explain
You know perfectly well what I'm talking about.

You don't hear anything about it. I feel that was a huge missed opportunity by the Dems. There should've been a hearing or something. Instead, it has come and gone. I encourage you all to contact your local Rep, Senator, etc. and demand action!


This is just a continuation of the tired and repetitive attacks: ie: the lazy and unmotivated "do-nothing Democrats" smear... the exact same one that Bernie Sanders* likes to toss around. (*who still hasn't ended his campaign, by the way)

This serves ZERO useful purpose. It's just more negativity that's being directed at the Democratic party, its leadership, and its candidates. I am beginning to feel like a broken-record, but I must point out again the reality that the approach that you and others and another certain "candidate" is taking only serve to create an atmosphere of negativity: Negativity generates apathy. Apathy discourages voter turnout. Low voter turnout gives Republicans a chance to steal the elections.
