(9,211 posts)43. I voted for Katie Porter in that match-up, obviously.
But from now on, voters need to start some "think tanks" where we can accumulate huge sums of money that will put the fear of Gawd into our Democratic leaders, so that we don't ever have to be manipulated into something we don't believe in again. This has been such a huge fuck up on their part!
Even though Biden knew -- KNEW -- what was going on, he literally wouldn't let them go there! He's my hero...well, he already was...but now more than ever.
All this capitulation to "leadership", with people saying "oh! something must be going on that they know about and we don't". Nope. We knew what was going on, and it was BIG MONEY trying once again to buy the Democratic party for really asshole reasons. Joe saved us.
