re: #166 Interesting Times

Abso-fricking-lutely. The attempt to reach out to so-called “moderate” GOP voters was by far the dumbest Dem move of 2016. There are no, I repeat, no moderate GOPers left. Trump’s approval rating among Republicans is 85-90% so fuck the whole sorry lot of them with Vladimir Putin’s dick.

Worry about the base and independent voters instead.

Actually, there are a lot of moderate GOP voters. They’ve been voting Dem for quite a long time and have been desperately trying to change the minds of their families and friends. Those moderate GOP voters are part of the reason some previously solid red strongholds are now turning purple if not outright flipping blue. I really want to believe that trend is going to avalanche.
