(62,325 posts)It sounds so weak. The one thing Democrats fought hard to dispel, the accusations of weakness. Well I"M not weak, I fight for what I want no matter how hard it is to do, and I generally get it. Because that's what happens when you fight.
Unless of course you don't really want something. Which I believe is the case here.
So what is the point of voting for Democrats now, can you tell us? All we have heard are excuses for why Dems can't do this or that. Even when we give them the WH and Congress and the Senate, they STILL can't do anything?? Because of those mean Republicans ... .
Well, if this is what is going to be the answer to all those disillusioned young people and Independents, 'he can't do stuff even when we have the WH and the Senate and Congress' because the Repubs are mean, then WHY THE HELL should we vote for such a weak party?? Are you saying the Republicans are strong and Dems are weak? Because that's what we are hearing. I don't buy it, we COULD get what we wanted, but what we wanted isn't what Wall St and the MIC want.
