    Maybe RickStain can teach you about politics.

    What principles are those?

    We were founded as a Democratic Republic.

    One of our principles is to now allow mob rule, as it would put minorities of all sorts at risk. Change is supposed to be hard, and slow, to prevent the political wind of the day from prevailing.

    My best friend from high school said exactly this. (He lives in the heart of Scott Walker country.) He and his friends were never going to vote for her in a million years anyway, but I do wonder if it cost her votes.

    100% Fuck that. Why work together, right?

    We have the presidency, the House, and the Senate. Why work with the folks who weren't on board before the election.

    We should just push our agenda through, without any input from Dems.

    If Dems want to get on the bus, they can, but they have to sit in the back.

    Our only hope is to get certain GOPers weirded out by the prospect of a "man date."

    That was the only message she had since the DNC, when her whole speech was about how unacceptable he was.

    This was like a game in which the last team with the ball is going to win. On the verge of basically sabotaging his own campaign a few weeks ago out of spite, he managed to shut the fuck up for just long enough to get to election day and eek out some victories in important states.

    I can't believe the guy who Tweeted "check out sex tape" in a 3 a.m. Twitter storm is our president.

    You kind of have the presidency. He holds some pretty far left positions, which is something that some lefties should take at least some comfort in.

    I'd much rather live in San Diego, too, from a non-economic perspective. It's freakin' gorgeous. Would be a great place to live in your 20's near Gaslamp with a roommate or two. That would be heaven.

    Yet that's not a stage of life that I'm in. Seven more years here in the cheap Midwest until two life moments collide in the same year for us -- mortgage gets paid off and our youngest is out of high school. We plan to move to a "beach market" within 12 months of this. Hopefully, San Diego. :)

    So is the KKK burning crosses on Catholic Church lawns.
    But my mother saw it in her youth.

    Trump: "I am going to bring back your jobs and restore the middle class!"

    Clinton: "He makes fun of fat chicks!"

    I still don't know what kind of data the campaign was working with that told them not visiting Wisconsin after April was the right call.
