4. Once again, I'm not sure our side is paying close enough attention.

Think our public education system isn't as good as it used to be? That's cuz the right wing started filling positions on boards of education across the country back in the 80s while our side was running as fast as it could from the word liberal.

"As people do better, they start voting like Republicans - unless they have too much education and vote Democratic, which proves there can be too much of a good thing." ~Karl Rove

IMO, the Democratic Party has put & continues to put way more focus on national elections & not enough at state & local levels. I know a republican woman who registers as a democrat so she can be one of the democratic election judges. There's going to be more of that, & ratfucking like you won't believe, the next two elections. I have little confidence that our side is ready for it. Is there time to challenge all the voter suppression laws that have gone into effect?
