Had she won, Roe wouldnt have been overturned, big business wouldnt be running America, and citizenship wouldnt be threatened.
But a few people just couldnt vote for her.
We MUST vote Blue no matter who! We MUST win the Senate.
Politics isnt about being nice. Politics is about winning and projecting power!
Whether its Platner, Mamdani, or even Fetterman (gag) VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO!
Unite, Democrats, and FIGHT!

(6,724 posts)that don't vote now, because their vote is nullified. That might improve our chances in some down ballot races if they're normally close.
You can't be sure Trump would've won without the EC.

(43,011 posts)If that happens, Governor Shapiro would appoint a replacement who would probably want to run for election in 2028. It would be a different ballgame if that happens. Also the perfect appointee would be former Senator Bob Casey, who lost his seat in 2024.
In any case I agree with you, that IF Fetterman DOES try to run in 28 he will lose the primary, so other Democrats (including Casey) are waiting in the wings.

(307 posts)The Democrats need to get to the polls and if a high voter turnout is encouraged and achieved, I am confident the "good people" will win. This applies to voters in Texas, Maine, Ohio and everywhere else!

Everybody supporting this POS needs to be put on notice that one day, your time in the Sun will be done and finished and you will then be made to make amends, to make restitution to the American people, for endangering the American way of life.

(78,222 posts)In 1968 Dick Nixon illegally interfered with a peace deal with Vietnam that LBJ got done right
after he dropped out. He had Kissinger go to the North Vietnamese and a woman called Anna
Chennault go to the South Vietnamese and told them to not sign any peace but to wait until
after he got elected and they would get a better deal. Nixon signed off on the exact same deal
in January of 73 but the war went on for another 4 1/2 years killing @ least 7 million more
people.
1988 w/ HW was dirty too.
Overall the policies and programs of the Democratic Party are more in line with the needs and
thoughts of the American People so they have to cheat and pack the courts to maintain power
and in that effort billions of dollars have been spent, Although, I have come to believe that between
25 to 35% of Americans are so racist, sexist, anti intellectual, and Christo Fascist that the Republicans
will always have a base and in some areas of the country they are the majority.
Trump is a useful tool to the super rich, the fossil fuel industries, the tech bros, the crypto crowd,
and the Christian Evangelicals.
