(84,711 posts)It's isn't gonna' matter who is running for President or President in Four Years!
The Dem Push back is beginning. It's going to be tough work because we have ALEC and Art Pope plus other Repug Groups going for broke to ram through bills that only getting it overturned by putting anything but a Repug in Office to overturn their fascist crap which they are ramming through.
Some people here like to say that Dems didn't show up for 2010...but, they forgot the statistics that it's the "older folks" who consistently vote who show up for Mid-Term elections which are always way much lower in participation than the National Elections.
It was the Youth for Obama who didn't show up in my State in 2010 and it's important that the blame isn't on the registered voters in states who always vote in the local...but the One Timers who vote for President and in 2008 it was a particularly enthusiastic crowd who put Obama over the top....but, after that...what happened.
We need EVERYONE to vote in 2014 and it doesn't at this point matter in some states whether the candidates we Dems put up for election or support are Dem, Green, Indy, Socialist or Libertarian. We have to keep the Repug Think Tank/Corporatists and their Funded Action Groups OUT. They have done far too much damage with their money and control.
Thanks for this post Will...!
