2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWe live in an age where evangelicals screaming "If you are not a Christian you are going to hell."
doesn't work anymore and actually drives people away from religion. I hope party loyalists realize that screaming "If you don't vote for the nominee it is your fault our country is going to hell." is the equivalent to what the evangelicals scream and it does drive people away from politics. Our younger generation, the Millennials, are tired of hearing this crap from both establishment religion and establishment politics. The Democratic Party needs to find a new message or it will continue to lose voters and elections. Not that party members will even notice. They will just blame the voters and go on doing the exact same thing over and over again. What is it they say about doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results?

(58,785 posts)It's those others who despite Democrats and the Democratic Party and come here to tell us all about it. We keep saying we'll vote for the Democratic nominee, but that's not good enough for those who insist it's their way or go to hell.
