Winning is everything

Run Beto Run....changing my mind by the minute: O'Rourke/perhaps Klobuchar ---- Not that I do not love all the other Democratic candidates but this time I think a woman on the VP side of the ticket would be just what the doctor ordered. I think they can win!! Beto is young, charismatic, smart, from Texas and can go toe to toe with Drumpf. Yes, he's white which matters NOT to me but to some. Pragmatically I think it is needed.

Klobuchar is young, a woman, strong yet nice and funny too. Plus it could set a Democratic woman up for the presidency in 2028 (yes we think far ahead.) Democrats want to WIN. Winning is everything and another horrific four years of Drumpf will kill the planet and us!
Please, Democrats, do not add two extra parts to the budget bill which will create another horrific shut down of our government.  It is untenable to attach to that bill a decrease in the amount of beds housing asylum seekers and the advocacy of criminals at the border to be allowed in included in the bill. I implore you to stick to the funding of the wall way below the 5.6 billion asked.  We have MUCH more ability to succeed and win because the American people do not want a wall nor a government shutdown because of it.  They will be turned off and blame Democrats for including two other impossible-to-now-pass demands of decreasing beds and allowing criminals entrance.  Democrats will become the goat.  Keep the strength of our hand by simply limiting the bill to the president's intractability of a 5.6 billion dollar wall he can never get.  
Do NOT please let Republicans have the advantage by not coming to agreement because of these additional requests.  Millions of people in America are counting on you to save this deal and NOT come to a government shutdown hurting millions again just so Trump can score his political points with Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh especially if the impossible demands of Democrats will be used by them as a rationale.  NO

RESIST AND DEMOCRATS UNITE AS TO WHAT CAN GET PASSED AND WHAT CANNOT.   WHO WILL BE BLAMED FOR ANOTHER SHUTDOWN?

Democratic Presidential Convention--On to November

  I watched the Democratic convention last evening until my body's demand for sleep overtook me around midnight.  Having followed thin...
