(531 posts)I think Congress is absolutely where we should focus laser-like concentration. Now that we have an imperial president (with a extreme fundamentalist waiting in the wings) we have GOT to counterbalance this idiot. Thanks for the link and the encouragement. I have never felt so negative about the fruitfulness of protest in my life. I just don't think this idiot cares one whit about it, we are all just the 'great unwashed' in his eyes.

(4,157 posts)There are 4 Republican Representatives nominated for Cabinet positions. All those districts will have special elections. We could have 4 more Democrats in the House this year.
I am getting to know the Montana Dems who are interested in running and I will do all I can to get her or him elected.
