au contraire. Turdblossom maintains that he had nothing to do with the fuck-the-gays/"family values" initiatives in 2004 but he was caught dead to rights.The DNC is useless and won't mount a 50 state strategy and we go back to focusing on battleground states for the rest of silly season.
I want to agree with you as hope springs eternal and all that jazz. But the sad reality is that the Anti Gay Marriage acts were written to motivate a demographic that already has a history of high turn out. And the sad reality is that young people don't vote. I hope that you are right and I am wrong, I really do. Because the people Trump will put on the Supreme Court scare the fuck out of me.
The nice thing about old people is they die. Wait, that sounded harsh. I mean... Yeah. Young people traditionally don't come out to vote. But regardless of the current state of the Sanders posse, you gotta admit they're energized. Will they stay energized? You're right. At this point it's a wager, not a certainty. But I'm feelin' pretty good. And the whole discussion was whether or not the DNC had a 50-state strategy. Putting minimum wage in the platform isn't the opposite of that.
The Sander's organizations are now working on getting people elected into Congress. If they can keep up the hype and excitement level I think they can do some great work. Young men wait so long for the old people to die that they forget their youth. I read that in something Russian, but cannot place the source. Then again it's 5AM and I am too damn old to have been up for the last 50 hours straight.The nice thing about old people is they die. Wait, that sounded harsh. I mean...
I can't say I'm too hyped and excited, but I am planning on voting in my Kansas state senate primary on Tuesday. Something I've never done before. I think part of what Sander's campaign achieved is that it showed his supporters that we do have the numbers to make a difference. We can drag these entrenched assholes our way somewhat. And we have some reputable people among us who can win primary battles outright. It is kind of stupid, but there is a Lord of the Rings quote that reminds me a lot of the mood that has come out of Sander's supporters post campaign.If they can keep up the hype and excitement level I think they can do some great work.
A thing is about to happen here that has not happened since the Elder Days. The Ents are going to wake up and find that they are strong.
