Seems like they’ve been campaigning pretty hard on abortion access. Not sure what else a party that covers moderate right and center with a few moderate lefts could all get excited about. Federal legalization of Marijuana might be popular enough.
I’d like to see more progressive campaigns but unfortunately it seems like the party needs everyone who isn’t far right to have a chance of beating the christo-fascists. It seems so much harder to motivate voter turnout for Democrats. You can’t just feed them anger, hate and fear, you have to convince them you’re actually going to make things better.
I didn’t want Biden but isn’t that who the party voted for in the primary? I guess after Trump, a boring, return to normal sounded good to people and I haven’t heard of anyone else running for the Democratic nomination that’s even worth consideration. We had the anti-vaccine loon with zero experience, the congressman I’d never heard of who can’t name anything he would do differently than Biden and was so incompetent he missed the filing deadline to be on the ballot in some states and the lady who also has no experience but seems like she believes in healing crystals. The whole party is a complicated mess but I still find it almost incomprehensible that there is a still a serious possibility of Trump being elected again.

primary elections aren’t free and fail, as we were reminded in 2016 and 2020. we don’t really have a choice on who becomes the nominee
