New Mexico, my home state,is amazing. Also Colorado.

Agreed. Playing what-if games about who could have won is useless and will only hurt the Dems further. What we need to do is focus on strategy and look towards the future, not dwell endlessly on the past and point fingers to make ourselves feel better.

:/ The daycare center at my grad school and on the undergrad campuses have waiting lists that are miles long. And it’s an issue lower down the chain; lots of studies on how you can help teen moms graduate by giving them day care at their schools, but that’s so not a thing schools wanna invest in for a variety of…

I feel like Liberalism has been corroded by a quarter century of, ironically named, neoliberal politics. Of course the health of the economy is important, but not to the point where it’s unimpeachable. Democrat’s fear of losing votes to voters who have been indoctrinated into voting against their own interests by…

How about we stop worrying over whether Democrats will oppose ever tiny GOP proposal and just focus on opposing the big ones. Like the massive entitlement cuts that Paul Ryan is cooking, and that Trump will probably be convinced to sign.

I was a fed during the last shutdown. I remember people being all pissed that whoa government shutdown actually means the government shuts the fuck down. Nope, you can’t go to the Smithsonian, that’s part of the government. Nope, no National Parks for you, that’s part of the government. Nope, no Lincoln Memorial. If…

The funny thing is that trump won five states that have the highest enrollment rates in Obamacare. Granted, some of those were slim margins, but still.

How do we get evening news to start covering platforms and stop covering scandals? Scandals might extend to the other party’s platforms—like, defending PP is scandalous to liberals so we have been informed about these intentions by our news outlets—but there is very little coverage about what candidates want to do if…

Clinton lost because her campaign sucked

Because she wasn’t an inspirational candidate, bottom line. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I have a huge amount of respect for Hillary Clinton as a stateswoman, but she’s a bad campaigner and a bad candidate, especially compared to the likes of Obama, Sanders, and Trump. Whether or not you agree with any…

Nobody in the campaign, or the DNC, thinks they did anything wrong, and THAT’S the problem. They point fingers at Comey, Sanders, Middle America, Stein, Gary whats-his-face... but they did nothing wrong and will not change in their minds. They’re super proud of their 2.7 million vote lead, when at the end of the day…

It sounds like the Clintons fucked up in the same way they did back in 2008's primary campaign, screwing up the mobilization/state-by-state game and letting their central office people screw things up at the local level. That’s troubling, although I still think Comey was the bigger proximate cause why Clinton lost.

This Louisianan will be at the polls tomorrow voting Campbell!

This chart explains why both democrats and republicans with a few notable exceptions have been silent as the grave on this protest. They wouldn’t dare bite the hand that feeds them.

Born in 1980 and convinced barely out of childhood of the impending disasters of climate change and corporate capture, I think many of us have seen this coming our whole lives. Being able to say, “I told you so” is empty. I can’t live in hopelessness or despair. I will resist until they physically stop me, because…

We have got that disgusting David Brock working for the Dems. I’ve been a Dem my whole life but he’s a piece of crap. He should be working for Fox or Breitbart. Clean it up Dems! It’s hard to say “we’re better” with that no good trash around.

Things that got us a Donald Trump presidency, ranked:

Yep, he also won in Arab Muslim-majority areas of Dearborn. At the time i saw a few Hillary supporters saying they voted for him because they can not deal with female president, because all Muslims are male and sexist. But what turned so many Muslims to Bernie was his foreign policy and that turned off many from…

Wow, this article and the comments are so condescending - it just smacks of what’s wrong with the left.

Am I the only one who’s finally entered the 5th stage of grief: acceptance? I mean, it’s not a feeling of 100% acceptance. It’s like 25% acceptance, 75% anger, but I think this is as high of an “acceptance to anger” ratio that I’m going to get.
