i distinctly remember a jason altmire ad in 2010 where he said 'when congress voted to build a border wall, jason was there to insist it was made with american steel'

altmire was a western PA dem who came in on the 06 wave, can't remember if he was an official blue dog but he was def pretty conservative, became a health insurance exec in florida after he lost his seat

No, I'm lampooning posters like evilweasel who are weirdly emotionally invested in believing that Pelosi is on their side and knows what she's doing.

Also "strategery" is a classic Bushism that I miss using.:w00t:

for most people who would swing vote or fluctuate turnout (working-class whites in this case) the economy has mostly improved for them since 2008 even if it's nowhere near where it was in the 70s.

I'm not really sure about this, unless you're talking about an insignificant amount of improvement. I think that any sort of significant improvement is more or less limited to the top ~20-30%. What wage growth has occurred is likely offset by the increase in prices for necessities (which make up a greater portion of expenses for lower to median income Americans).

Actually I'm gonna disagree and say inserting Russia in to loving everything is a big problem and it is impossible to take seriously anyone who does that.

The democrats are so toxic and weak in red/reddish states that the entire establishment there could probably be put to the blade by even a half-assed insurgent movement.

There is no need to put a Cholera victim the democratic establishment to the sword. Just leave them alone and they'll die off on their own.

Like seriously, last time right before the shutdown deadline the dow started tanking and they immediately caved on the thing they were not supposed to cave on. Its almost as if someone else has their ear and they are completely unable to ignore that voice.

Also, people might wanna take a look at Lives Worth Living, which is a documentary about Disability activism. Which was way more radical than you might've known, they occupied government buildings and dragged themselves up the capitol steps without wheelchairs or crutches and chained themselves together in the building.
