So it would appear you're trying to gaslight midterm polls just to feel better about yourself.
    You keep saying "victory" and "she won"!!

    She didn't win shit; because if she had, she would be President and SHE'S NOT!!

    SEDITION: incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority.

    usfreedom666 has been doing a lot of groaning lately. He needs some stool softeners, I suppose. Or she might be pregnant.

    Grind is basically right in his premise that what's set Trump apart is he's actually giving his supporters something to vote for. Everyone else just doesn't want you to vote against them. I've seen some of that coming out of the progressive wing of the party but progressives aren't exactly well known for winning elections.

    What Democrats really need to do is provide an consistent and focused message on middle class/working class economic issues and what they will do to fight for working peoples economic well being. The idea of an "anti-Trump" candidate is a sure loser. As Bill Clinton famously said...and why this is beyond the grasp of so many Democrats is beyond me...is "It's the economy stupid."
    WHAT?

    Poll: Health care a top issue for voters ahead of midterms
    http://thehill.com/policy/healthcare...ad-of-midterms

    Are you suggesting that democrats aren't focused on health care?

    What .. republicans are more focused on it?

    With 100 Days Until the Midterms, Trump is the Top Issue
    https://www.voanews.com/a/trump-midt...p/4504518.html

    What .. democrats aren't focused on Trump?

    US voters list immigration as a top issue for the midterm elections
    https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/p...term-elections

    Family separation, ICE, DACA, and sane immigration policy aren't issues that democrats are talking about?
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.
