Just my opinion, but I think they represent the values our party needs to embrace to win elections. I know that others thought bring the pre-corpse of Dick Cheney on stage to endorse our presidential candidate was a stroke of genius. I didn't. While we surely picked up all six votes that Dick carried, I think that was the one thing that led to VP Harris's defeat. Far too many people remembered that dick-dripping as a war criminal.

Especially thanks for mentioning their other podcast. Very much appreciated! When I wrote the OP, it was very late, surely a valid excuse for my fading memory! I wasn't sure I would post it when I got up today. Lately, I've been posting more on another internet site, which is overwhelmingly older females, with Democrats and independents against the felon. They want to be activists that do more than vote. That is who I am most comfortable with -- activists. And I tell them that I am convinced that it will be grandmothers who heal this nation.
