Ring of Fire: Midterm Losses a Teachable Moment For Progressives

[Prana69]

11. Way to miss the point! Just stick your fingers in your ears....

You blame ignorant and lazy non-voters? Have you considered why are they "ignorant" and "lazy" and "non-voters"? Because you need to give them a reason to listen, to be motivated and to get out and vote. And the Democratic Leadership are not giving them any of those things.

What part of that can't you understand? If you don't give the people what they want, why would they listen and get out and vote for you?

FFS, it's not that hard.

Democrat leaning citizens don't want corporate backed representatives. They want true progressives.

Like Elizabeth Warren and Alan Grayson. Not Republican Lite.

Someone said it best in another thread - "Hope and Change" used to be an inspiration for Democrats. Now it is just a phrase of ridicule.

The Democratic leadership never had the guts (or were never really committed) to actually implement "change".
