The goal isn’t merely to win. The goal is to lead, and it is impossible to lead by chasing the electorate’s tail via woefully inaccurate public opinion polling. We need a Party that is willing to envision something, rather than narrowly tailor its policies to some imaginary middle.
Whenever a party like that forms and has even the slightest chance of winning elections I will vote my ass off for them. In the mean time I’m gonna vote for the assholes that maintain the status quo rather than the fascist assholes that want to put people like you and me in gas chambers. I’m not happy about voting dem but I am happy to vote against the GOP any chance I get. I do always vote for the left most candidate I can in state and local races but on the national stage we unfortunately have only two shit choices, and one of them is far worse than the other.
It’s a fascist bill for a shit hole country.
This. Is. Tailism.
