I got to say I resent being painted as some kind of backwards rube...over and over since Amy K came out standing in the snow....they keep saying Progressives are too radical for the MidWest..they most certainly are NOT. Granted we are not NY or CA...but it is 2019 not 1950..all the DEMS I know are in love with AOC and all the progressive policies...(I am 67 years of age, and an old Berkeley hippie)..and Trump didn't win WI...they cheated...

Both Sen Kerry and Secretary Clinton were beyond "electable". Perhaps even over-qualified.

Like Amy K. Have said for a year she should run, glad she's in the race. But not sure why
