Highlight:

Debbie Downer here. Would repealing Roe vs Wade REALLY spur Democratic turnout? [View all] Vogon_Glory May 2022 OP

Hi There, Debbie. MineralMan May 2022 #1

I will try, I am still giving money Vogon_Glory May 2022 #3

That would really limit discussion and reflection here, wouldn't it? 867-5309. May 2022 #17

Not necessarily. Discussion and reflection are perfectly possible MineralMan May 2022 #19

Then if someone is of the opinion this isn't going to motivate Democrats 867-5309. May 2022 #28

And here we are discussing, no? MineralMan May 2022 #38

You have to wonder about this sort of thing and why some do this instead of rallying the vote. Demsrule86 May 2022 #66

I agree 100%! MineralMan May 2022 #67

Stop blaming young voters. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #2

I'd be delighted to be surprised Vogon_Glory May 2022 #4

They LITERALLY got Biden elected. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #5

I don't blame young people but shame on you for painting Boomers, millenials, and others with the hlthe2b May 2022 #21

I giving you the statistics. Boomers overwhelmingly went Trump. Am I wrong? Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #22

You deride everyone on this board that is not a Gen Z or Alpha. No, those are NOT the facts-- hlthe2b May 2022 #23

I 100% did not "deride everyone." Where do you get that? Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #25

Boomers and Millenials were evenly split. They did NOT overwhelmingly support Trump. Pew FACTS! hlthe2b May 2022 #27

You're looking at the wrong chart on that page. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #32

Also, I think you meant to say Gen X and Millennials were evenly split. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #40

No. I have twice provided you quote from the summary. Gen Xers and Boomers were more evenly split. hlthe2b May 2022 #52

I said I was wrong about Boomers. But you initially said Millennials and Boomers were evenly split. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #55

The quote which I've provided 3x: Gen Xers and Boomers were MORE evenly split in their preference hlthe2b May 2022 #57

Yes, but look at this post of yours Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #61

I stopped responding to those whose every comment is "yes, but" a very long time ago hlthe2b May 2022 #63

OK. I will be more direct. YOU MADE A MISTAKE IN YOUR SUBJECT LINE Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #65

As a boomer, I agree with this assessment. yardwork May 2022 #43

It's going to happen. I get it. My generation (Gen X) is moving more right, too. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #44

I noticed a rightward tilt in myself in my middle years. yardwork May 2022 #46

I teach high school, and probably every few weeks I grapple with BEING the machine. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #47

Thank you for your service. yardwork May 2022 #56

It's all good. I thought we were on the same side on that and I was miscommunicating. Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #62

They also joined the campaign that threw the 2016 electorate to Trump. Budi May 2022 #31

Um, no Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #42

We lost the 3 key Electoral States. Stein's votes were equal to the #'s we needed Budi May 2022 #48

Well, even if that is the SOLE reason for the loss Cuthbert Allgood May 2022 #50

As would I. Budi May 2022 #54

Very good points. yardwork May 2022 #41

Women should be militant about Abortion access through menopause. Ilsa May 2022 #8

You should film yourself reading this and post it to TikTok. Duncan Grant May 2022 #10

If I had a speaking voice like Ron Johnson's Vogon_Glory May 2022 #33

Duncan, I have missed you! yardwork May 2022 #45

I should start my mornings with The Prayer of St. Francis. Duncan Grant May 2022 #59

I agree with you. We need to push the fact that Roe is not the only decision based on privacy Raven123 May 2022 #11

This Roe issue, with alito as very bad guy target, with 'no marital rape' inflammation, empedocles May 2022 #12

Placing signs in my front yard. ChazII May 2022 #13

I think it motivates both sides, really 867-5309. May 2022 #14

Young voters were a primary reason why Biden won TwilightZone May 2022 #16

And they've been on board blaming him since. Budi May 2022 #36

It is not helping when our pols are endorsing anti-choice candidates. Emile May 2022 #18

There are activist young people like the Stoneman Douglas survivors. hlthe2b May 2022 #20

It doesn't help when we're endorsing anti-choice male Dems AntivaxHunters May 2022 #24

While you are correct to worry, worry about all age groups, not just the youngest. Over the years FSogol May 2022 #26

There was always an implied threat about the SC PlanetBev May 2022 #34

It was real all the other times. Poor Democratic turnout in the past led up to this point. n/t FSogol May 2022 #37

True. That is exactly what happened in Obama's term. Budi May 2022 #51

I'm usually a buzzkill on here, but even I think it would be a huge boost to our turnout Amishman May 2022 #29

Keep in mind PlanetBev May 2022 #30

Exactly. Wait until we start seeing stories of women dying from problem pregnancies Midnight Writer May 2022 #58

We will have to wait and see of course Mad_Machine76 May 2022 #35

I was young once and didn't vote. yardwork May 2022 #39

Not me, I voted the minute I could (Carter). I worked on local campaigns from the age of 16 or so. FSogol May 2022 #60

Young voters will turn out if motivated dalton99a May 2022 #53

I trust women are motivated. CrispyQ May 2022 #64
