i'm posting itt to say that i, as the chair of a local party will continue to poo poo on national leadership in its current incarnation (and the state leaderships who support them) until they either unfuck themselves or gently caress off, with the latter being the far more preferable option to me.

that's what's pissing me off more than anything -- more emphasis was placed on converting moderate Republicans who still don't exist instead of convincing the majority of voters who don't swear fealty to either party that they can make the difference. It's why the only clear and constant parts of Ossoff's message could best be described as a cargo cult of Republican talking points ("controlling spending," "no tax raises on the rich," "no to single payer"). with as much money as dem leadership pumped into the race (fourteen times more than the previous three [well, one] races combined] you'd think that a non-existent message was what they wanted to go with

I mean, it's really funny how bad dems (of which I'm including you, wj) keep saying "it'll never happen, it'll never happen" despite the fact that journalists everywhere are having to write "the Trump adminstration" in their articles kinda proves that the bad dem line of logic is a con game that brow beats anyone accusing it of being a scam

I mean, I ask this because once primaries ended I hosed off from the forums for a while because lol if i, an insufferable goon, am gonna listen to other insufferable goons be insufferable about someone who turned out to literally own house slaves.

for those wondering (all none of you) my personal insanity arises from not just serving as the chair of a local democratic party in a solidly red county that has atrophied for more than a decade, but also having to find a second job because lol if anyone important thinks teacher's aides should get paid a living wage in a rural county. and somehow in all of that, i have to canvas for a local candidate for the state house because the incumbent is a carpet-bagging piece of poo poo who lives two counties over and preaches fiscal conservatism up until he proposes and pushes hard for stupid loving laws about how the bible should be the state book or how the state government should pay people to stare at other people's crotches to make sure they're using the right bathrooms.

but i'm sure democratic leadership was totally in the right in abandoning this area because of racsexists and not because the clintons wanted to pump the party for every last dollar. kinda like how there's all this handwringing about gerrymandering making it impossible for a democrat with no message and hard-republican stances to win, and i'm over here saying "gerrymandering wasn't always a problem for you, motherfuckers." defenstrate old neolibs is what i'm calling for, i guess.

i wasn't about to proclaim that the absolute boy finally grabbed his dinner egg and subsequently firing the first shot of the workers' revolution, but i was quite pleased to see corbyn and labour both perform better than the odds that everyone gave him. that's the thing about setting expectations artificially low -- you'll either get them right or be quite pleasantly surprised.
