Now the idea is we fight for good candidates using primaries in all states or as many as we can for a beginning
win or lose we vote Democratic. We must fight off the attack on our Republic. I donated monthly. I really like no kings. You work in small groups. We can fix this.
we need a party that people want to join.

(71,416 posts)I am having trouble going back and forth
shitty WIFI. The organization is Indivisible (no kings)it is on YouTube and likely Google. I was able to get through and joined
I am paying a small amount monthly to help and will volunteer. You dont need to donate however. Any help with the link issue would be appreciated. I will keep trying.
I am back for heart related issues and lung issues. I had a good report yesterday on the heart. Some medicine I took likely caused the Iung issues. I have pulmonary (lung) tests tomorrow (fingers crossed). Thanks in advance.

(63,486 posts)Tuesday was a good lesson of the "all politics is local" variety. Various landslides around the country, all with a different style candidate and tone. Pushing a one size fits all label on local politics is a fool's errand.
Lots of people around here could learn that lesson as well.

Wilson in Seattle WA is about to be mayor - campaigned on housing, grocery prices, taxing the rich
Mikie Sherrill NJ: "I am fighting for you. I'm fighting to get your costs down. I'm not doing a 10 year study. I'm not writing a strongly worded letter. I'm declaring a state of emergency to drive your costs down. I'm increasing that first time home buyers program so you can get your foot in the door. I'm taking on those landlords who are colluding to drive up your rental prices. Will my opponent do that? No."
Spanberger VA: "Were going produce more energy and were going to lower energy costs. We are going to produce more energy here in Virginia and make sure that data centers pay their fair share." She also campaigned on lowering the cost of homes, cracking down on pharmaceutical prices and making data centers pay their fair share.

(63,486 posts)but how it is implemented is pretty local. Rent control in Podunk, Idaho won't sell. Jobs issues vary considerably by region. N Virginia, hit hard by the gov't slash and dash will need help there. Farm country needs tariffs relief for their export crops. You get the drift.
Our Big Tent has to adapt itself to what the local culture is.

Focusing money and fights on primaries where one candidate is going to vote 98% in line with what the other candidate already does.
