So...can we talk about things that wont happen now? [View all]
Just last week I was assured that the senator certain people love to hate...forever...no matter what he does...was going to single-handedly bring down the ACA because he brought expanded Medicare forward into the national discussion. I was told that we shouldn’t talk about things that won’t happen. Unicorns! Rainbows! Ponies! Shouldn’t be aspirational lest we bolster Republican efforts!
Now, that seems to have not happened. Can we start painting a bigger picture to try to encourage voters to vote D now? Maybe setting big goals and speaking them loudly so people can have something to be excited about? 2018 is coming. Let’s be bold about it.
