Ralph Nader voters, Democratic voters not voting in 2010 and 2014, Jill Stein

Are contributing factors on why abortion rights are in danger.

Edit - oh, and Ginsburg not retiring when she should have

California recall and VA Governor election

If Newsom and McAuliffe both lose

Media -this is not a good sign for the Democrats, they are in bad shape for 2022

If one loses

Media - this is not a good sign for the Democrats, they are in bad shape for 2022

If both win

Media - yeah, they won but it was closer than it should have been… this is not a good sign for the Democrats, they are in bad shape for 2022

If Republicans were in charge of California, NY, VA, and Colorado

I am making this post about redistricting. So the states I listed in the title have some type of independent commission that determines congressional districts and are all controlled by Democrats. This is in contrast to states like Texas, Florida, Georgia and North Carolina where there are no commissions and Republicans gets to draw the lines.

If the Republicans controlled the states I mentioned in the title they would be looking at a way to ignore the commission and draw their own districts and Democrats should do the same. I feel like the Democrats have unilaterally disarmed and are going to pay the price for it. I am all for ending gerrymandering, but you can’t end if the other side won’t.

Wow! What hyperbole….yes, the taliban is bad and some of our Afghanistan allies were left behind…but she is going overboard on what is actually happening…it’s ridiculous

Senate Democrats Face An Unfamiliar Campaign Problem: Major Primaries

The headline and article make it seem like it’s a bad thing, but I actually like competitive primaries. I think it makes the Democratic base aware earlier in the election cycle that there is an important election happening and gets them excited. And the candidates are able to build a get out the vote apparatus. Instead of the party trying to gin up support for a predetermined candidate a couple months out from the general. Political pundit always talk about a “bloody” primary hurting, but I go back to how in 2008 the primary between Obama and Clinton enthused Democrats and that energy stayed throughout the general. Heck, even the 2020 Democratic primary battle prepped the Biden campaign.

I am starting to lose count of these people

Clinton and Obama were re-elected

After Somalia and Benghazi just to put things into perspective…of course we didn’t have as much social media as we do now(it was there for Obama, but not like now), and Republicans are even more crazy and partisan (although they were crazy and partisan back then too)

This is what the Republicans and MSM have been waiting for

American deaths….they will pretend to care about them and hammer Biden as the cause for their deaths….but they really don’t care

Casualty vs fatality

People need to know the difference…I see people (including Congressmen) saying that Americans have died because they don’t know the difference.

So now people are concerned about Afghan lives

Afghans have been dying in this war daily for the last ten years….now that this bomb that killed Afghans this morning, everyone is now shocked and upset
