President Obama: ‘Democrats Will Win in November’

“We are on the right side of this debate"



President Obama declared definitively that a Democrat will succeed him next year, telling a gathering of House Democrats his confidence stems from his belief that Democrats have the American people’s best interest at heart. “Democrats will win in November,” he told the House Democratic caucus during their issues meeting in Baltimore, Md.

“We are on the right side of this debate,” he said. “We’re not cynical, we genuinely believe that everybody should get a shot.”

4. It's taken me 10 years to get here--I often go for months without posting.

But, the stakes in this election have brought me back.

5. Glad to have you back and posting!

7. It's a pretty charged atmosphere, but I try to stay out of the most heated debates...

9. It's hard. I don't know how many posts I started today and then didn't post it!

We'll survive it somehow.

11. Boy howdy, do I know what you mean. I re-read everything 3 times before posting to avoid censure.

8. From his mouth to the gods' ears

This election is ours to lose. There's no reason why we should be defeated by an egotistical, overgrown frat boy with zero political experience, or a theocrat with all the charm of Joseph McCarthy.

13. We must NOT "misunderestimate" the dumbed-downness of the American electorate, though.

Opposition research and maintaining the civil high ground will be deciding factors.

12. Your sig pic reminds me of our likely opponent in November...

A howler monkey--a comedic, trained entertainment animal with megalomanic, fascist tendencies.

You were a great source during the Paris tragedies.

15. Not if HRH is the nominee.

And she would be a total disaster for downticket races.

16. DEMOCRATS WILL WIN...

18. Yay!! I want you to be right about that!!!

19. I'm thinking that winning this election would be like winning WW III.

Sure you won, but the country is in ruins. Great win there.

20. I'd sure damn rather have the ruins in the hands of Bernie or Hillary than in Drumpf's.
