I'm too stubborn not to be. I believe in lead or get out of the way. The party establishment seems to want to maintain the status quo. Nope, it's not working. The other side has chosen an emperor and given him all encompassing unlimited powers.
This is not a test, not a game. I'm so glad there are serious minds here. I would like nothing better than seeing our current leaders succeed. It doesn't have to be my way but it does have to be decisive. They must lead without hesitation not by what polls well or who's willing to pay better, but by what's the best way forward for the majority of us.
We, as a party have been playing catch-up for too long. It's an opportunity to lead and the status quo is a losing proposition. The establishment fears losing control. Control of what? We have to win to control anything.
You (collectively) are under the impression my remarks are strictly criticism, on the contrary, I state again and again, do better, assuming they will. I'm just one voter with a strong opinion. You don't have to like my opinion but if you wish it to be stifled, then you're no better than the other side who wants to squash freedom of speech.
If it makes you feel any better, I have serious issues with my 2 CA Democratic Senators voting in anyway that legitimizes crypto. But, I agree with more of the policies they choose to back than I disagree with so they get my vote.
It is my right and my duty to voice my concerns with any politician as I see fit.
I don't object to a difference of opinion and I'm not too proud to change my opinion when approached respectfully with convincing information to the contrary. And I have no problem apologizing when I may have stepped on toes. Hell, it's in my profile. Like many here, my patience is non existent and my rage lies just below the surface.
You guys can keep defending anybody you choose and I will keep hoping for good leadership. I will say this, I wouldn't want their job.
