8. We need unity and to win elections.

Sun Nov 30, 2025, 10:44 AM

Sunday

All of the feel-good, feel-bad, "I'm a sweety pie, and you're a fascist," issues need to be dropped and their voices need to give way to those of the majority. Eyes-es on the prizes. We need to be firmly democratic and firmly nothing else. All our inner brats need a timeout, not indulgence.

The last time we made progress here was during the Obama years. I remember them. Obama went into the lion's den at the "Republican Retreat," and clobbered them. Pelosi was brilliant. The Blue Dog dems (bless them and miss them) gave up their political careers doing the right thing.
