Republicans have many more months before the mid terms.

[deanrd]

Most of the races will be in early November. That's many more months of being awful.

By that time, their destruction of healthcare will be really felt.

Their economic policies will begin to fail if not completely failed by then.

Most of their lies about jobs and employment will be exposed.

But even with all the upcoming and unavoidable failures, Democrats still need a message.

My parents were Democrats when they lived in Chicago during the 1960's. The 1972 convention, when radical leftists kicked Daley's delegation off the floor was a shock to them. After that, it was all downhill for the Democrats. They became the anti-American party, and eventually, they turned their back on the white working class. When they embraced abortion, they turned their back on evangelicals and Catholics. The Democrats only have themselves to blame for the fact that now they only represent coastal over-educated elites and minorities. Trump came in and took voters whose voices had been ignored for decades by both parties.

Well, not really, blackrook.

You mean "un-educated", they only tell people they're over-educated, and think highly of themselves.

Over-educated, meaning people who have multiple degrees that aren't that useful in the real world.

I agree. By that time even some of the Forrest Gumps will likely start to wise up to Trump's con game.

Republicans aren't going from awful to really good.

In fact, they aren't going to from awful to mediocre.

The best they can do is really awful to just awful.

They never got better than really awful under Bush.

And they stayed pretty awful, minimum under Obama.

But since Obama left, they are beyond really awful.

And it's pitiful,

just

pitiful.

I am not sure if they need a message. Republicans never had a message other than being against Obama.

The fact is that voters trust Democrats more than Republicans on healthcare. All they have to say is we need to fix it not destroy it. The plan to get rid of the mandate to pay for cutting the top tax rate for millionaires will be taken from low and middle class people. All Democrats have to do is found people that sound reasonable and working together to fix things.

2020 will be a referendum on the Trump presidency

No repeal of Obamacare, no wall, no lock up Hillary, no balanced budget

 

[BluesLegend]

Breaking: Republicans retain the House and Senate, Dem's in disarray. There that saves me from having to post this next year.

This whole year for Trump and the GOP in Congress has been a near disaster, and now the party is dealing with Moore and the crazy part of the base.

 

[rightwinger]

What are Republicans going to run on in 2018?

What they intend to do when they have already failed in all their promises?

Trust us.....we will really repeal Obamacare this time

Will Democrats actually do anything themselves, besides expose more of their crimes and remain 100% committed to opposing any success for the country under Trump, or just continue to rely on the GOP to be their biggest chance at winning any more elections?

 

[JakeStarkey]

What?

The electorate knows

Uranium One is a conspiracy

Gowdy is a conspiracy to get Clinton

GOP owns ACA (the dummies are talking about putting the ACA repeal into the Senate version of the tax bill, when they five to seven GOP senators will say "fuck you, I want to get re-elected"

 

[sartre play]

There is no party of us, its all about them.
