[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not surprising! As a Democrat, I dislike the DNC - they consistently make bad decisions and they have crummy leadership. [/quote]

They do support some important voting rights litigation without which it would be increasingly difficult to win in some states.  They are often the lead pocketbook on a lot of those cases.  
I’m not sure how much they do as far as crafting candidate messages. I don’t think they play much role there.[/quote]

They should.  Someone needs to organize the Dems on messaging.  Punchy, short, to-the-point messaging.  The Republicans all repeat theirs.  Dems on the other hand are all over the map with no consistent or coherent messaging.  Anyone who knows anyone at all in Dem politics should be listening to me on this. It's one of their BIGGEST liabilities right now.   Republicans eat their lunch on messaging.[/quote]

Genuinely curious what messaging you would suggest.[/quote]

For starters:
We stand strong against illegal immigration.
We stand strong against crime and believe in prison time for violent crimes.
We stand strong for all children and will do what's needed to ensure they receive the education and support they need in well run schools with teachers who are dedicated to their profession.[/quote]

Democrats can SAY that all they want but their actions are in direct conflict with that message. [/quote]

How? Dems wanted an immigration bill and Trump stopped it. Also, Obama deported more people than any other president. Please humor me with Dems who support violent criminals. Don't bring up Defund the police b/c VERY FEW cities actually did that. Unfortunately, we were bad at getting that message out. We believe in education. Charter schools and vouchers are not going to be better for education. It will just cost a lot more. Closing the Dept of Ed is going to end badly. We have a Secretary who thinks AI is A1. Please. [/quote]

But not in reality.  Let me correct you.

Dems wanted an immigration bill to codify their bad behavior in to law. Good for the DNC. Not good for the country.
I don't care about deportation numbers.  If you don't allow illegal aliens in to begin with, then your deportation numbers are going to be lower. DUH.
There were a host of prosecutors who were soft on crime that were appointed by democrats. 
If charter schools aren't going to be better than public education, then why is everyone clamoring to get their offspring out of public school and in to charter schools? You're standing on the sidelines telling people not to believe what they see!
The Department of Education is a bureaucracy that can't get out of its way and does precious little to improve education. It just throws out grants and money everywhere. Money doesn't fix everything.

It's not the broadcast of your message that sucks. It's your actual message (policy) that sucks.[/quote]

The Republicans helped draft the immigration bill so clearly they believed in it b/c Trump told them not to vote for it so it's wasn't the dems' bad behavior.

I believe in Charter schools, but the numbers don't pan out. The scores are no better. What's different is that for parents who choose charter schools, the schools have more flexibility in how they spend their money and structure their days. My kids went to public, charter and private school. Also, charters are public funds so there is accountability. There is no accountability for vouchers and in most states, rich parents can get them. The other problem with charters and vouchers are that they are not available everywhere, especially in rural areas.

Money doesn't fix things, but as bad as the schools are in red states, they will be even worse.

FYI - I know a lot about charters because of a prior job.[/quote]

Charter schools work better in blue are than in red areas.  In blue area it's l about self selection of students into charters.  In red are it's about sneaking a bit of Jesus and "free market" into education.  [/quote]

I have zero problems with Jesus (or any other religion) in education. The pandemic forever changed the way I see it, when Catholic schools opened while public schools remained closed. Anyone with a mission and ability to educate kids should be eligible for funding IMO. [/quote]
