[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington voters are mostly intelligent and well educated.[/quote]

Yep. There are a few cranks in Arlington who get whipped up by culture war claptrap - a few skulk around DCUM and ARLnow - but by and large, a highly educated populace is kryptonite for Republican electoral success.[/quote]

I’m an Arlington liberal but find this viewpoint extremely elitist. Highly educated or extremely privileged? I think they usually go hand in hand and I’d rather go back to being the party of the working class. I think the Democratic Party does more for working people which is why I usually vote blue. However, the elitist TPs are a huge turnoff and the party is out of touch with most Americans (see school closures and other vax mandates). And, yes, my whole family is vaccinated but I was so turned off by the vilifying by the left.  [/quote]

You do realize schools have been mandating vaccinates for decades, right? I am in my 50s and had to have all my shots before entering schools in the 1970s.

Not sure what this has to do with the Democratic Party. It’s always been a nonpartisan and sensible health issue. [/quote]

Really?  Schools require vaccines that have not been FDA approved like the Covid vaccines?  [/quote]

Stop shifting goalposts. You referred to vaccines, not COVID.

COVID vaccines had FDA EAU pending approval, which they ultimately got.

It’s amazing how conservatives love to blast government as incompetent but cling to this pedantic “but it didn’t have *approval*.

The sheer stupidity and bad faith thinking is truly breathtaking [/quote]
