The Admiral 02/20/18 3:06:29 PM #46:	Darkman124 posted... The Admiral posted... Can anyone articulate what the Democratic platform is in 2018? The whole "we're not Trump" thing didn't work out so great in 2016, and if they haven't made any progress in 2 years, I wouldn't be counting on this "landslide" victory some of you think is going to happen. "We're not racist pieces of shit who beat women. They are." I'm not pleased with the choice, but to say it is not working is to lie, especially considering the progress they've made in the vast majority of elections, most of which were (very) favorable to the republican contenders. Perhaps the GOP should stop empowering racist pieces of shit who (literally) beat women. Perhaps. Dems seem ready to step aside on the economic argument entirely. You seem very uncharacteristically angry today. But that aside, you haven't articulated any sort of platform either. The Democratic voters are notoriously lazy, especially in midterm elections, and aren't going to show up in tremendous numbers if there isn't something compelling to vote for. Hating the standing president alone didn't work for them in 2004, so I'm not buying that as a great motivator now. --- - The Admiral <cite>The Admiral posted [p:896444121] in Has the le...
