(231 posts)Any wins? From leadership, not individual democrats taking action. I can think of, and have listed several actions that individual democrats have taken that have produced positive results. The actions themselves may not have been wins, but the reactions by voters HAVE been wins.
With democratic leadership having record low approval, it seems something needs to change. Soon, and significantly. If I am wrong, I am open to being shown why. What are they doing that is effective. And by effecting, I mean that as broadly as possible. What are their wins, positive results, or effective strategies? Or even just new or different things they are dong?
If I am mindlessly bashing, are you mindlessly supporting?
I don't love some things about Cory Booker. But there are some things I really like about him. One of those was his filibuster. His pointless, doomed filibuster. My reaction was GOOD! MORE!
I don't know much about Senator Padilla, but I loved his disruption of that press conference. When he futilely tried to confront Noem and was detained I was outraged at his treatment. And I felt like finally someone was fighting. FINALLY!
So please, show me where I am wrong. Honestly I want something I can support, something I, and other voters can get behind. I want the same kind of energy and dirty fighting that the GOP does when they don't have power. Can't think of anything new? Steal something from the GOP bag of dirty tricks. Get what wins you can, even if they are losses. Even if they are pointless symbolic wastes of time. Small wins are still wins.
