I was gonna title this "And here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price you have to pay to get out of going through all these things twice" and then write "Stuck inside of America with the fascism blues again" here, but I'm not sure if that comes off like gloating and that's honestly the last thing I want to do this morning.
I'm saying it is an uphill battle, just like it was with Obama. That doesn't mean I think it was impossible for her to win, and at first I thought she was on the right path.
Then she did a bunch of stuff that was shooting herself in the foot like cozying up to Republicans and continuing the support of Israel instead of focusing entirely on progressive policies to excute the base like Obama did. She did the same thing that multiple Dem candidates have done in the past, because apparently the party has a hard time learning from their successes.
Lmao at your last line. Yea, in another comment this AM I mentioned that they need to never run this kind of campaign again. If they do, it better be for the most generic white guy to ever exist. I know they will continue to run it because ratchet theory works in their favor regardless of what they say, but it's just so disheartening. When they refused to let people speak at the convention I knew it was over for them. What a terrible joke. I feel insulted that I had to vote and pretend to care just to have them do less than I did. Hope we all make it through ok.
