Dysfunctional? Really? Cowards who rolled over and let all of this happen NOW are upset about the dysfunction THEY are responsible for.
I hate them from the depths of my soul |
+1 “But I never thought the Leopards Eating Faces party would eat MY Senate!” |
It's dysfunctional because Mitch McConnell made it that way, and allowed White nationalism to take root. If leaders cannot lead, then they need to get out of the way for those who will. The GOP, other than judges and tax cuts, have been an obstructionist party for decades. |
I can see PA and WI changing, particularly if Ron Johnson (R) is still the nominee in WI - he is universally hated, and Fetterman is the nominee for the dems in PA. |
I have started monthly automatic donations to Mark Kelly (AZ) and to Phil Arballo (CA, running against Devin Nunes). I will also support a Democratic opponent to Andy Harris (my pathetic congressman, who just made front page national news for trying to sneak in a gun to the capitol, post insurrection). I understand Heather Mizeur has announced she is running against him. I don't know much about her yet so I haven't thrown any money her way-- and I don't have much to donate-- but I will do what I can to get Harris tossed out of congress. |
The problem with Heather Mizeur is that she is a pretty progressive candidate in a state that is safely liberal, but not progressive. Progressive candidates do not do well except in places like Montgomery County (where she is from) which is very progressive. But the rest of the state is not progressive, just liberal close to moderate. She's going to have an uphill battle much like any other Montgomery County progressive has had when looking for office outside of the county. |
Peters is great. I really wish Sherrod Brown took up the job. He is a progressive, focused on labor. He won solidly in a red-state against a strong opponent. He also raised a ton of money, most of which were individual contributions. If the democrats ran more candidates like Sherrod Brown, we would be in a much better position. |
I called NC voters for the 2020 elections and was sad it stayed red. CAN'T WAIT to make calls for Jeff Jackson!!! |
