(19,926 posts)That's why we lose.
Our side never seems to stand behind anyone.
Look at Biden, he had one bad debate performance and 3/4 of the party suddenly thought he should be thrown out like garbage.
Then, they had Kamala, a shiny new candidate, followed by the screaming that we should have had a primary (in the short time before the election)....then, when she lost, it was all about her failings as a candidate and "we should have had a primary" and a bunch of other crying over things that were done.
Do you live in Maine? If not, you have no say over the outcome of the primary or the election.
I don't live there. I don't get to choose their candidate. I get to vote on my choice in Iowa and I hope that the Iowa seat and the Maine seat go to Democrats.
There are plenty of Democrats I find to be not what I would choose. I don't pretend that I am the arbiter of morality for the entire country though.
