[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He cannot get out until there is an agreement with Harris.  The party cannot leave the first women of color VP dumped in the curb like yesterdays trash.  She needs to agree to a graceful exit in order for Biden to step aside.  He’s probably already had the conversation that he can’t step aside to let her run because she has a worse shot than he does.  At least before the debate that was true, not sure where we are now but I suspect the same place.  [/quote]

I voted for Biden as a transitional president with the understanding that he would promote Harris next.  I know so many are saying people do te like her bit is that really true? If so I am so disillusioned with the D party.   [/quote]

Don't care. Shut up and vote D.[/quote]

This is what sinks the ship.

I read today that DNC is reaching out to swing state voters and listening to big donors. Honestly, eff them. If they don’t care about people in all states and regular donors, that’s their problem. Not the voters’. If that means Trump wins the election, that’s squarely on Biden and the DNC. [/quote]

Sure it’s squarely on Biden and the DNC but what comfort does that give you, to be able to blame them? I don’t care whose fault it is. I want to avoid another Trump presidency at all costs. It doesn’t make me feel better to say, “well if this fails, we know who to blame.”[/quote]

Why assume I take comfort in it? But, let’s be real. I’m tired of both parties putting important issues on the backs of individuals. We shouldn’t blame individuals for immigration, or the environment, or saving democracy. One family crossing the border or buying a car is nothing when big corporations want cheap labor and pollute the environment.

So, too, with voting. Two major parties are controlling the above and much more with little input from individuals who aren’t donating $1m. So, yes. I’m tired of blaming GenZ and women and POC for not saving democracy, when it has nothing to do with them. [/quote]

Really the only power most of us have is our one vote each.   That does have to do with each of us.

Having two flawed candidates is the way it is almost every election.  The flaws are different and worse but the situation is pretty familiar overall.

The next president will get SCOTUS picks and those decisions will force their way into all of our little lives.[/quote]

Well, many people protest by not voting, but then are blamed. Look, I’m a huge fan of Hillary, but her deplorables comment was beyond the pale. Politicians blame voters instead of self-reflecting, or, god forbid, reading the polls and prioritizing it over dark money.

Sooo much dark money let’s not pretend that my vote or yours is what’s the problem. Both parties need a massive overhaul. I’d hoped the Dems would change, but that doesn’t seem likely at this point. Politicians don’t deserve votes. They earn votes.
