Yep. And lefties and moderates not getting off their asses in the midterms since forever is why those state Republicans were able to have the numbers to push through every bit of evil they could.

Anyone is saying that we should roll over and give the party to angry white guys is an idiot. The main reason why the Dems lost is because they took for granted minorities and minorities who are very left wing. Their response to what is happening at Standing Rock is the one glaring example and now they are wrongly…
“I want change,” is the mantra of the stupid and lazy. What kind of change? Who will implement it? Can it realistically be done in a specific amount of time? What small steps will let us know it’s working?
I bet some of the people on these boards who railed against Hillary for being an undercover rightwing “neoliberal” are angry white guys, who deep down really do feel like angry middle aged white guys should be catered to, because that will be them someday, if not already. And they deserve to be catered to, by virtue…
“It’s funny to see people on these boards that railed against Hillary for being an undercover rightwing “neoliberal” immediately rolling over and deciding that we should really cater our entire party to disaffected, angry middle aged white guys.”
Dennis Miller has been a functionally insane right wing nutjob for a long time now.
The message was there. They aren’t listening. They got their news from their facebook feed. Hilary is the devil and did something wrong, they aren’t sure what but something. Taxes will go down, but not for them they couldn’t be bothered with the details. So screw their dumb asses.
Absolutely. Note how none of them are ranting about the age, health or wealth of Hoyer or Clyburn. It’s so ridiculously transparent.
Do you feel that way about all the rich people in politics? She’s hardly the only one, or the oldest, or the richest.
Are you kidding? Of course she had an economic message. She talked about jobs and infrastructure and tax plans ad nauseum. But she didn’t promise a pie in the sky because she’s fundamentally honest.
Preach it.
Yes, Hillary should have also run an ad saying she bailed out the auto industry. What?
I completely agree that catering to the xenophobia, racism, sexism, etc. is a non-starter for the Democratic party and can’t understand the willingness by some to do so. If they are talking strictly about economic policies, they already exist and take reasonable measures to ensure the economic stability of those…
Cranky old woman he doesn’t want to sleep with who doesn’t respect him and who he can’t fire and who doesn’t have any incentive to suck up to him? It’s like his worst nightmare (in the negotiating room, not the campaign trail).
The only messaging that works for those voters, as we have recently learned, is lies. We can tell them coal is coming back, but that’s a lie. We can say America will lead the world in heavy manufacturing and the scary brown people will disappear, but it’s a lie. “Keep fucking losing Midwest elections for the rest of…
In marketing strategy, it’s almost always considered easier to get a current customer to repurchase than it is to get someone to switch brands. Obama won by energizing the base and getting more minority/liberal voters to the polls. Hillary lost (along with a dozen other reasons because life isn’t that freaking simple…
Isn’t Dennis Miller a conservative now? Therefore all liberals = baby eaters to him probably. I feel like he and Bill Maher were on the same path but then Dennis did a hard right and Bill did a hard left.
No, this just makes you look uninformed. Gerrymandering dates back to the Civil War. Texas Democrats fled the state twice in the early aughts to fight it, which made national and international news. The fact that you didn’t pay attention until November 9th doesn’t make it Pelosi’s fault.
No, it’s not. We offer the best policies for blue collar workers, across the board. The ones that vote against that just to register how much they hate foreigners are not the ones we need to be trying to retain. We need to appeal to independents, and try to turn out the vote among younger voters, instead of…
No one is better suited to get under Trumpo’s skin than Pelosi.
