I see solutions. 75,000,000 people voted for dump; Biden got 81,000,000. That doesn't matter; what matters is that Biden won so many swing states, thus winning the Electoral College by seventy-four votes. So, if we can't get rid of the EC, the goal is to hold on to the swing states, the swing voters. That gives us a defined target; hitting it will ensure victory. Victory is nice, but it's the reverse I worry about: we can't have this version of the repug party in power, again. Voter registration and mobilization thus becomes the solution to the problem.

Repugs have done too good a job winning at the state level, governors, secretaries of state, state legislatures, etc. That must be reversed, and that will take time. Again, it's about voter registration and mobilization. If anything heartens me, it's the recent data on young voters favoring democrats.

Yes, Egypt, Greece, Rome, etc. fell. We're teetering on the brink. But if dems and all dem supporters roll up our sleeves and open our wallets, we might well restore the balance.
