43. Rhetoric. Why does my little opinion on an internet board match "the whole damn House" thing?

What do I do to focus...help me out here. Sing Kumbaya and pray for an electoral college miracle? What should one actually do ... like a real Plan ... to "renew the House" in the next 11 months? How does one GOTV without a candidate and/or a reasonable plan?

No..no...no..no..no-without-a-plan is what Republicans do. And who do they fear? Ah, not the yet-to-be-discovered self-funding Progressive.

The PACs are in play for both parties ... like it or not. Hillary is raising $200,000 per speech...like it or not. I support a search for another viable candidate...talk someone into committing for the next 3 years....but not holding my breath.

How about No More Posts That Dream About Those Not Running. Or better, Here's the Plan without Her. Or worse, The Pout...I'm staying home if I don't get my way. Let them have my health care, my (wife, girlfriend, mother, grandmother's) women's health/ reproductive rights, so sorry to my LGBT friends...y'all can just wait for 8 years 'cause we Don't Like Hillary.

It's not too early to start circling the wagons...not one bit early.
