(62,325 posts)seem to be about 'political strategy' which is exactly what the public is so sick and tired of.
If you think that the 'public doesn't care' then all I can say is, this is why Dems are losing registered voters because that demonstrates the out of touch attitude that is so insulting to the average voter.
You forget, it was we average people who won it all for Dems in 2008. And now it will be we, average people who will do it again, this time with a lot more enthusiasm since we have a candidate with a long record of GOOD JUDGEMENT and FORESIGHT to vote the RIGHT WAY on the major issues that concern the American people.
I suggest you stop trying to speak for us average voters because you don't do it very well. WE CARE GREATLY and it is insulting, though not unfamiliar sadly, to say we do not.
The old conventional wisdom which actually demeans voters, is being shattered right now by the fact that VOTERS NOW HAVE A CHOICE, one THEY made, not the Third Way or Wall St.
And the longer the election season, the better it is for someone who is not part of the status quo, who in just one month has set politics on its heels, showing that all the money in the world cannot buy EVERYONE, and the people view all this poisonous money in our electoral system as one of the most important issues in this campaign.
One candidate is not just talking about it, he is refusing to take it. And without that supposed all-important money, he has jumped from an unknown politician with 3% of the vote to getting 32% in a critical state despite the money being spent to make sure nothing upsets the status quo.
