Unfotunately, I don't think the appalling lack of education about the need for a senate...

[LAS14]

... majority is confined to idiot Trump supporters in Georgia. I bet we'd be flabbergasted to know how few voters of any stripe understand how the Senate works. Remember when Jay Leno used to interview people on the street????

So, while I applaud the clever billboards supporting the move to boycott the GA election, I'm afraid ignorance is going to cause low turnout among Dems too.

1. I worry about this too.

2. Except for Maine the Senate reflected the Presidential results

If they sign up for the Presidential behavior, then they have no problem with the Senate abandoning their oversight function.

You are right about ignorance.

3. Have faith. Just the opposite happened in Nov. 80 million Dems turned out...

in a record showing. We didn't pay attention to trump's anti-Post Office scam. We voted by mail to avoid the covid. With Stacey Abrams on the scene and working to get out the vote, with Obama coming and maybe even Biden and Harris coming, I'm optimistic. Especially with trump telling repugs not to vote.

4. If Dems don't turn out then we only have ourselves to blame. "Nobody has ever lost

money by underestimating the stupidity of people."* American people too.

5. Either they don't understand that VP Harris gives us a slight majority, or

they fully understand Mitch enforcing a 60-vote supermajority and breathe more easily.
