(#4923) We can't win over stubborn republicans but if they stay home and don't vote then good.

      With all the horror of the republican party being revealed we democrats need to stay focused on getting our voters out with a singular focus. There are many of us and if most of us participate in the coming election then we will do well enough. Yet the republicans are doing us a favor with their abhorrent behavior. With restrictions on freedoms their new rallying cry and the despicable trump and all his deviousness being exposed the timing couldn't be better for a blue wave election. We democrats have got to get our folks out and republicans are working overtime to turn their voters off.
     I see no beneficial strategy for us democrats to try and convince republican voters to vote for us. Instead I see a viable strategy that encourages independents to look at the policy choices for each party and then decide who is protecting and adding rights, democrats, and who has struck down rights and looking to strike down even more rights, republicans. The choice is really easy when we talk about our democratic platform and our enduring stamina to defend our rights from republican assaults. We should have no problem gaining the trust of most of the independents. So if we can just get our base voters to vote with a passion then we will be poised to run the table so to speak on November 8, 2022.
     We are never going to get the stubborn 25-30 percent of the vote because they are not able to adjust to reality. They are stuck in a time warp where republicans are not to be challenged. So fine, they can do what they want but for the rest of the 70 to 75 percent of voting Americans we can make the case for democratic leadership going forward into our futures. I am sitting here thinking about how this would effect me and that is being selfish but really it isn't. Because no matter how the politics of our future plays out I won't be part of it for too long. Yet even so, I am not one who sits by and lets the worst of what humanity can be run over us without a fight. Even this old fighter is not done making the case for good, fair, and freedom inspired futures!
