There is just too much "shudda, cudda, woudda" around here. It's a waste of time and energy. I trust that we will come up with the right way to get where we need to go. We are the hope of the world right now. Trump has brought a disaster even I could not have predicted (and I have hated him for as long as he's been in my consciousness).

I have 5 grandchildren right now either raised or being raised in strongly Dem households. 3 are female, one is male and one is transitioning female. I have to have faith in their ability to take over for me and my generation when I am gone.

No disagreement... Self Esteem May 2025 #8

I think so. We had/have such a deep bench of great candidates... brush May 2025 #12

And those candidates should have been given the chance to run in the '24 primaries. elocs May 2025 #26

Agreed. A proper primary and long campaign, IMO we would've won. brush May 2025 #51
