True. But at the same time you're not going to get any of that by not voting and letting Republicans get elected. I mean get you butts out there and primary these centrist lead weights.

Doesnt this boil down to the usual "the left falls in love, while the right falls in line"? hard to fall in love with your alliy's ongoing war crimes and lefties are renowed for not falling in line even against their best interests. Makes it hard to win as an incumbent, though, how did Obama win reelection, he wouldn't have been mistaken for a saint the second time round.

PS: got it, it's because Romney still couldn't make the right fall in line hard enough comparing with the love for Obama.

I feel like we need to talk more about how disconnected the Democratic Party is from what their base actually wants

Did you feel this need before the election too? Because a lot of people did and that is who we're talking about here.

Have you actually looked at their platform? Or are you just repeating "Republican lite" because that's what all your social circle says?

Gee, would have been nice to have democracy a few more years to maybe try and fix it.

Agreed, but the roar of such sentiment just prior to the election that immediately died out tells you most people saying that didn't actually believe it.

Those who do kept their mouths shut until after the election, because we knew doing otherwise would just elect Trump.
