In red states, it seems like Dems have the most qualified and humane and intelligent candidates. And, yet, they usually lose the race to the most arrogantly ignorant jerks around.
I think Dems from red areas are some of the best. You really have to hold your own ideologically and resist groupthink when everyone around you thinks differently. Debating with conservatives in Missouri helped solidify me a lot.
They seem to have been going with "we're not those other guys" and its mostly been working for them, but apparently america needs reminding every now and then about how bad "those other guys" are.
These are good, but Dems also need to have real, practical policy proposals ready to go for the moment they do regain power. The GOP had a detailed battle plan in place for the moment things swung back their way - Dems need the same.
Touching sentiment, Mr. Melton. That's the language EVERY Democrat politician uses. It's interesting that you carry on as if there will still BE a Democrat party in 3 years. The Orange Cancer is deliberately tanking the country and consolidating its wealth as to RULE IT.
If that's what you tell yourselves to sleep better. All I've seen y'all do is pass great legislation, then let the Gops take credit for it. Even though they voted against it. I see them lie REPEATEDLY, and y'all whine about it. I saw them humiliate Hunter to hurt Biden, and y'all LET it happen.
I see y'all take scandal bait, whine about it, then bite on the next scandal the following day like dummies. J6 was supposed to be the END of Orange Cancer, but y'all let him off the hook, then let him let the MAGAts who desecrated the Capitol off the hook. See the pattern?
Even now, Cory Booker has spent 20+ hours doing what Republicans WANT y'all to do: keep TALKING. Talk about democracy when the MAGAts have a different definition than yours. While Cory's preaching to the people who already side with him, your enemies are continuing to disregard the Constitution.
And wasn't it Dems who showed up to the SotUA talking about democracy was in jeopardy? But then sat there like chumps while Fascists celebrated in their faces? You threw ONE rep to the wolves, but the rest of you sat silent. YOU ALL SHOULD'VE PROTESTED, and DARED them to throw you all out.

I hope you win and break that trend.
