I don't know what Rachel's point is with the doom and gloom

[bigdarryl]

Of the democrats.Im sick of our side constantly complaining about the money on the other side

[bigwillq]

1. Rachel who?

[bigdarryl]

4. Maddow who you think

[bigwillq]

5. Oh, that Rachel.

It's all so clear now.

Enjoy.

2. She is really talking about

how democrats don't vote in midterms. It's a big problem.

8. The Democratic Party needs to stop playing defense in midterms

Voters need a reason to vote for people, you cant win by just telling people you arent the other party.

[Raven]

3. Ok, good. Let's tear her down. Inspite of

how intelligent she is, if she says anything negative about Obama or the Dems, she's gone. Bullshit.

[Cooley Hurd]

6. The whole thing is getting sickening, Raven...

I posted this earlier, hoping some would get the message, and the irony:

7. democrats don't vote in midterms?

is that the new junk box meme? like "weapons of mass destruction" or "freedom fighters"?

9. She is reality based

And she tells the truth. If we can't counteract the obscene amounts of Citizens United media money with massive turnouts in the off year-- we and the USA are screwn.

Massive turnout for Dems in an off year? Historically not going to happen,UNLESS we work, work, work. No way we can match the funds. We have truth, but they have the paranoia, knee jerk hate and the unlimited money.

I am very afraid for 2014, unless the general electorate somehow gets smart and motivated.

10. Her point was that strategy can defeat money.

One mistake that the DSCC, DCCC, and DNC are making is focusing on fundraising and not spending time building grass root networks. Rachel pointed that out. Getting White, Black, Hispanic Hindu, Sikh, Vietnamese, Chinese, ect community leaders and business people talking to their friends and customers is worth millions of dollars. All of the listed groups, except Whites came up big for President Obama and Democrats in the 2012 election, the concerns those voters had about republicans then are valid today, democratic leadership groups need to recognize this and get busy building grass root connections. We have the numbers, republicans don't.
