The tick-tock of two party politics means that the Dems will likely win a shitload of seats in 2018 against an insanely unpopular president almost regardless of what they actually do.

The big problem imo isn't that the Dems won't get into power again but that they will be of the same type that won't actually fix anything fundamentally wrong with the country. If the left wing party isn't genuinely dedicated to addressing climate change/health care/wealth inequality/racial justice/constant war issues then the country is like super hosed.

I was as down as everyone else here about the Zuck presidential campaign until I read today that he really likes Iowa. Really did a 180 on my opinion on him after that.

Was there anything equivalent to Bernie would have won in 2004? I know Dean was the progressive candidate before betraying that with 10 years of lobbying, but what were the hot takes of 2004? I wasn't politically active at the time, what with being in middle school, but I don't recall much self-reflection on the Dems part then either.

Dean had like 5% of Kerry's delegates, he faded out super fast once the voting got started. He wasn't really comparable to Sanders campaign at all.

I wager that there is some entrenched resistance (ie not just big donor money or whatever) from Dems who viewed ACA as their signature big career legislative accomplishment being told it kind of sucks. I don't know if that goes away if they get more public feedback/yelling about it or if you have to elect people divorced from the original process.

The Victory for #HillaryMen

Tonight, we hope that this nation will recognize the first female President-Elect in our 240-year history. We also expect Hillary Clinton to represent all of the country if she accepts the mantle of leadership, and to offer a vision of inclusiveness and healing as we turn from the crude and ugly candidacy her opponent, to focus on the incredible achievement of a broad and truly diverse coalition. That coalition is one of the most important and rewarding aspects of this election, and it’s personally thrilling that amidst the often ugly sexism and bigotry of these many months that such a diverse electorate stands ready to make history. That coalition includes many millions of “Hillary Men.”

The error people keep trying to point out is that people seem to have convinced themselves that everyone who doesn't live in one of like 4 american big cities is a virulent, boiling racist who's hoarding guns and is just looking for a chance to shoot someone who looks just a little different than them.

This isn't true. This is the same fiction that is peddled by the right, that every city has a teeming criminal underbelly that is just waiting to murder everyone who isn't used to seeing skyscrapers when they wake up. It's a stupid, and quite frankly, very cowardly, way of looking at the world.

I agree with this post. Keep truckin'

I just thought of a new slogan, check this out: "America Is Already Great!". I think it plays off the MAGA slogan in a clever way and reaches out to all the voters that think everything is actually not that bad and gets them onboard.
