Looking backward with regret is what the entire nation is experiencing.

Those votes to flip Congress Democratic are waiting to be cast.

Keep it simple.

Only a Democratic Congress can give a weary nation less of Trump.

We are tailgating the RW machine.
Taking the lead will win voters in red states.
You can see it on the Bernie tour.
