No one knows who the number two Democrat is in the House so running ads about them isn't going to get as much traction. The Right Wing Hate machine will turn on any and all prominent opposition figures. Hell, they went from "Obama Who" to full on stroke inducing hate bone in about a year. Trying to pick someone they don't hate is dumb because they'll hate anyone you pick.

I'm liberal as gently caress and I say let the Democratic Party fulfill its destiny by immolating itself.

Guy Goodbody posted:well gently caress, guess it's time for suicide or terrorism, because the Republicans have won forever with their fox news and emotion magic Remember when Dems were going to flip the house and tie the senate because Trump was dragging them the gently caress down? I wonder if the doomsaying on the republican side was like this. It certainly was in 2008.

The RWM doesn't even have to finish the sentence about who the base should hate before they've already starting slinging sexist/racist/other insults at the named party. It's an irrational hatred that just needs an Other to be directed at, no consistency is needed. (((Joe Lieberman))) is a filthy globalist! Joe Lieberman is one of the good ones.

So when the democratic party faces a failure it is easy freak out, become depressed or start fighting. And because we all feel the same about this, these emotions spread quickly.

US politics is a far more tractable problem than climate change, which is a far more tractable problem than climate remediation. In my opinion the western world is suffering a terrible lack of imagination.

Don't let the anger and disappointment get to you; use it to hold these people's feet to the fire! They want you to give up and assume nothing matters, because cynicism and apathy is exactly what helps them win. But Trump's numbers are in the mid to high 30 and don't show any evidence of rising (even something like the baseball shooting didn't help him); Mueller's investigation is happening apace; the American people loathe the AHCA and, if reports can be believed, the coalition to vote for that piece of poo poo bill is fractious. Stop giving up so easily. We're still more that a year out from the midterms. That's plenty of time for more of Trump's incriminating tweets evidence of collusion to come out, and for his incompetence to bite him in the rear end. We're rapidly approaching a debt ceiling crisis that there's no evidence that the congress will even be able to address meaningfully. This is far from over, and I'm just saving up that anger so that I can express myself by my ballot in November of 2018.

See, if you were smart at all you'd let the Republicans gloat over GA-6 and maybe even playact that you were mad about it. It's meaningless and if you dwell on it as a victory or a loss, you're getting distracted from the real matterings at hand.

Lmao Trump is running -15 in safe republican districts even down ballot where Good Loyal Republicans always vote R even when the orange oompa loompa is distracting them. drat that's super bad. I look forward to Ralph Northam cruising to victory in VAs gubernatorial and the VA house becoming Dem controlled following those numbers.
