Well liberal members of this board - I hope you're happy

12. I'm sorry, I don't agree with you.

I am an Independent, and yes I voted pretty much a straight Democratic Ticket.
(except for County Council which did not show party affiliation, and I wrote in my name there just because it was asking for 4 people. I voted for 3, wrote in one.)

I do not look for party purity.
I mostly vote against the Republican party at this time.

Their campaign sucked, and let me show you some ways:

1 - Their email campaign was a stinker. When you tick off even your base with your emails, you're just not providing good will.
2 - Motivation was just not there. When Democratic candidates can't be proud of what they have accomplished and instead takes in a further to the right position... That is Idiotic. The idea is to differentiate yourself from the opposition. They are Democrats, not "Republican-lite". It is also one of the reasons I get frustrated with Obama, he took too many positions that alienated those at the left. The Republicans were NEVER going to support any of it any way. Might as well go for what is actually good.

How could we, as supporters fight for them when they back-track on positions that we promote?

3 - Don't rely on just money. One of my biggest gripes on their email campaign was the huge push for just asking money. You know it was only 3 days before the election when they finally showed me volunteering options through email. If I didn't do my own digging, I would never have been able to do any phone calls or canvassing.

I will vote for Clinton if she wins the primaries. During the primaries, I will support whomever I think is best.
