are now ruining our lives.
Being RELENTLESS even against impossible odds seems to pay off. It keeps things in the public eye and folks remember at voting time what you stand for.
But generally the opposition is considered "stupid" here, and we are intellectually superior.
How's that working out?
I think some Democrat needs to stand up every day and propose legislation and go on TV and talk about it.
RELENTLESSLY.

And I'm not flaming Dems here, just encouraging them to FIGHT no matter what the odds. Shoulder shrugging just isn't going to make it.

I am a lifelong Democrat, radicalized by Chicago 1968, and have been fighting ever since.
