I love this German proverb my great grandmother used to say

Sweep in front of your own door.

"Happy Days Are Here Again" used to be the Democratic Party's theme song and you'd hear it every four years at the convention. I wish they'd bring it back, starting at this year's convention.

I do believe that the "mind your own damn business" messaging is excellent. "We aren't going back" will be the key message and it is so good. Will Rogers once said "I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat." I was so worried that Biden dropping out would cause chaos and division. I am so glad I was wrong. I haven't seen bumper sticker messaging from Democrats like this in my lifetime.
