78. What do we do now? Stop supporting politicians who don't support us

If the democrats aren't going to govern for the people, it makes no sense to give them our time, money, energy, passion, and creativity.

None. Einstein's definition of insanity is doing the same thing over & over & over & over and expecting different results.

The democrats lay down the gauntlet on health care and sell us out for corporate profits, they lose us. We need to vest our energy in supporting and creating a party that represents the people.

How about a progressive party with the progressive caucus and the few courageous Senators joining up -

Petition them. Pressure them.

People aren't going to run to the Republicans. They have lost the country. The people must rise up and demand real change. And, obediently voting for people who stab us continually in the back because they think we will always be there doesn't work. Can we admit that now?
