    If we keep acting like anyone with a D by their name is perfect we’ll never fix shit.

    Progressives usually don’t (value based on group membership). You know those disappointments only got into power because they were the least-bad option. Because progressives don’t value loyalty; progressives need to fall in love.

    Thing is, they have just one option, and it’s merely the lesser of two evils. They need more less-evil choices. They need more people saying “people have the right to defend their land” and blow the dog whistle, and then say “that’s not their land. That’s not defending” when they get in.

    I say that’s 45 disappointments, but it’s only 45. Promise me you’ll get it to 44 and lower if they’re in your area. Do what you can, at least.

    This isn’t a movie script; it’s a continual slog with a progress report every 2 years. This is one time when “line must go up” from the pit it’s in now. So. And I mean this after all that rambling.

    Primary their asses.
