(22,858 posts)What about framing do people not get? It's a big part OF convincing people that if they DO give the Dems X number of Senators to do Y they'll actually fucking do it and not think of a host of other reasons, batted around in THIS FORUM no less, to plant their asses squarely on their hands and do not one goddamn constructive thing. Otherwise they think the Dems are all blow and no do. Outside of the ACA, we haven't given them many reasons the last 20 years to think otherwise, because....we don't have the numbers in Congress, certain Dems won't play ball, it's hot outside, the season isn't right, the Republitrash might be mean to us.....Ugh.
There once was a Democratic Party that was fearless and kicked Republicans in the nuts. I grew up with that party in the 60's and 70's. I miss it.
