    The Dems will (hopefully) eventually realize they lost that state years ago and stop doing dumb shit for votes.

    Challenge level: impossible.

    The Dems STILL campaign as if it’s 1992 and that the least aggressively far right Republicans and the independents to their immediate left are persuadable and therefore the key to victory.

    They’re not. These people would rather die than vote Dem and the VAST majority of them will either hold their noses and keep voting for the fascist party or stay home.

    Meanwhile, the more the party courts absolute monsters like Dick Cheney, the more leftists that weren’t going to are gonna stay at home rather than vote for people endorsed by some of the worst war criminals in the history of the US government.

    Just to forestall any bad faith accusations: I’m not saying that I endorse not voting. For the record, I don’t. I’m saying that that’s what’s going to happen if the Dem leadership and election strategists don’t wake the fuck up and realize that things have changed since the rapist from Arkansas was elected over three DECADES ago.
