(54,770 posts)28. Sen K and S came across as compassionate. I doubt they changed one white winger's mind, however.
As long as GOPers who said they will vote No, stick with that, we are good for a few months. Our Senators did score points and Sanders introduced Public Option and lowering age for Medicare. Hopefully, white wingers will start thinking we have to do something in that direction.
But GOPers scored with local level junk, that Sen K opened the door. Even Clinton recognized in early 1990s that a lot of people would be afraid of turning things over to Feds. I'm the opposite in that I live in a red state that couldn't even bring itself to expand Medicaid to help poor. That's the crud white wingers do.
Until we take back Congress and Presidency, we will get nowhere unless Trump has a heart transplant from someone who cares.
