even if schumer actually holds to that position and threat, the problem is this is eighteen loving months too late and the Democrats are already going to pay a price in November

Real talk even if we get a wave in 2018 and a victory in 2020 I think the party is going to end up splitting

can someone name me a compelling tale with no genuine conflict

Catcher in the Rye didn't have genuine conflict but even its most die-hard proponents would probably classify it more as a character study than an archetypal "tale" and also it's not compelling

Yeah pelosi has thourouly discredited herself so the first thing we're gonna get if the Dems win the house back is a whole lot of infighting

personal observation: allowing debbie stabenow to go unchallenged in the MI primary is a huge loving mistake. she is going to lose, as is gretchen whitmer, who will probably get the Dem nomination for governor thanks to shri thanedar.

This would be the best case scenario. In actuality the dems are going to lose bigly in 2018, and 2020, and the dems will just cease to exist as a party, but will exist as a PAC loving over progressive challengers to republicans in formerly blue strongholds.

losing roe would accelerate the party split, because by that point it's between destroy the chuds salt the earth, and reform conservatism. I know I'm the former.

according to a vox article i just read, if every dem senator abstains from roll call votes the whole chamber grinds to a halt because republicans dont have enough votes to provide a quorum. idk whether convincing 2 gop senators to vote no on kavanaugh is easier than convincing every dem senator to play procedural hardball tho
