63. Who do I want?

Wed Jan 30, 2013, 06:31 PM

Jan 2013

Someone who's able and willing to let us do the midterms before we lay out the next 6 presidential nominees.
Somebody younger. Why? Younger voters lean democrat, heavily. They just don't vote enough. Why? Because people keep sending up people completely and utterly out of touch with the young voters. Republican AND Democrat. That's where their apathy is.

And you want to send not one but two people in that age bracket.

Furthermore, we need to start promoting the younger members of the party. Fresh faces, fresh ideas, new blood. Cause if you keep going back to the Clinton-Obama well time after time, that shit's gonna dry up fast. I certainly have no issue electing a 1-term senator to the White House, if they can land the job. Most of the people on this board, in fact, don't. Do you?

It will be continued in late October/early November 2013 frazzled Jan 2013 #53

Bill was GOTVing in 2010 and that didn't help. In fact, he was pushing for Liberal_Stalwart71 Jan 2013 #44
