[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dems blew it by keeping schools closed for an unreasonably long time, losing suburban women swing voters. They lost me too, and im a lifelong democrat in DC who hates Trump. Wheres the alternative in our party? Do better, Dems.   [/quote]

You're selfish and pathetic.  There's a great big world out there, and not everything revolves around your snowflakes.[/quote]

And you think this kind of reaction represents a good electoral strategy???

[/quote]

I don't care.  No so-called "lifelong democrat" turns on the party and supports Youngkin on the single issue of schools being closed for too long WHEN THEY WERE LONG AGO REOPENED. [/quote]
But could get closed again.[/quote]

LOL. Sure.

You sound 100% rational.  :lol: 
[/quote]

That's completely rational.  Maybe you don't want to hear it, though?  Think of this:  a variant where case rates exceed those of last winter, and that evades current vaccines.  [/quote]

So in your scenario, how infectious and virulant is this new variant? How likely is it that this scenario would happen?

I think it'd have to be a pretty crazy virus for most parents to want to go back to virtual/concurrent/hybrid.

[/quote]

The point isn't the ACTUAL concerns about the impacts of the virus.  The concern is that you'll have people who manage to sway the perception enough that the powers in charge believe (against evidence) that schools need to close.  Like last year.[/quote]

:roll:

Unlike last fall, we now have clear data on safety and consequences. 
[/quote]

You are proving the point.  There was actual evidence in Fall 2020 of how to reopen safely and, to re-state this point that you refuse to believe, a whole lot of places did just that.  [/quote]

What was that? That one study from a daycare setting?  :roll: 
[/quote]

Right?  Stupid moms wanting kids in school.   :roll:  :roll:  :roll: [/quote]
