330. I agree! Not a single progressive lost a seat...

Sat Nov 28, 2020, 01:23 AM

Nov 2020

Only milktoast, Blue dogs, centrists lost their seats!!!! If they had polished their response to the "socialist" ID, and didn't let the repubs frame "defund the police" as "dems want to take away your police", they all could have won. When your message is mud, expect to get slung!

Corporate dems have no message that defines them. Progressives are willing to and have shown that it's possible to get corporate money out of politics. The DNC just wanna raise money, keep power and not have to actually make change happen!

My opinion only, of course. I'm for making MY [boomer] generation get out of the way and let the next generation step up to the plate and lead. They are at the point where they can do it much better than we can. The old Dem guard needs to let go for the good of the country. Pelosi, Schumer, Feinstein et al...RETIRE ALREADY!!!!!
