Conservatism is a cancer against which we must always remain vigilant.

In political terms, 2016 is still far away. We don't know for certain whether Hillary Clinton will run for office or Elizabeth Warren and others won't.

Having Democrats in as many elected positions as possible is extremely important, and with mid-terms right in front of us, 2016 can wait.
