(1,787 posts)Vote blue no matter who left us with people who voted with Repubs more than against, people who ended up switching parties, and generally didn't support liberal platforms in lieu of "reaching across the aisle" nonsense. How do those nubs Obama drew back work for us, hm?
I know there are a lot of people here who adore Hillary Clinton, but be honest, now. She was the worse candidate to send up against Trump. And the DNC knew it. When your own party lectures you about not expecting ponies (i.e., the fucking things they promised us, FFS), tells you to sit down and eat your peas, why would we be glad to see any more of that?
Frankly, I've never heard of any of these people newly elected to whatever. They seem younger, somewhat diverse. We can only hope they decide to fight, to beg, borrow or steal a spine and stop exposing the party's belly to the idiocy that is the Republican party. I won't hold my breath. The people running in the mid terms better be fighters, or I'll stay home. Fuck this shit.
