Oh I agree the Democratic Party had better not be complacent especially if they run old tired Joe again.

I don't really see a serious Democratic Party candidate emerging from the crowd.

It's as if they are somehow running against an incumbent Trump. I can't believe they blew it this badly.

Honestly, VT is mostly a blue state. I'm pretty confident the first woman, first openly gay Vermont Congressperson will be elected. I'll be happy if that happens. But I am so tired of strict party lines. I think those do more harm than good. That's why I like the "Republican" VT candidate. When I read his platform it almost perfectly aligns with mine. He is clearly "independent" in terms of his thinking. So I'm voting for him. Maybe it will be one small step to acknowledging candidates that think for themselves.

Oh, I can easily question the character of most politicians, I'm more interested in your claim that Democracy is at stake by one particular politician questioning election results.

Okay---You kids have squabbled about this Dem Vs Pub thing long enough. It's timeta turn off the set, get your jammies on, say your prayers & gota bed. Thank Me.

Except later…. when all republicans vote on a matter the same way.

In my state….where it is close… one politician DOES make a difference. ron johnson symbolizes what is wrong with the current “republican” party… albeit he is the worse of the worse. BTW there are over 300 election deniers, as mentioned previously. Democracy is at stake because of them all. If you don’t believe in our election system all is lost.

Given the millions Democrats have spent assisting some of those 300 in the primaries, how are we to take them seriously when they proclaim the end is nigh?

Who are the current top Republican intellectuals, political philosophers, and thoughtful commentators? Today's William Frank Buckley Jr. types?

(Being unable to locate a GOP platform on their own national web site, I'm digging deeper.)

I have not once heard any of the Democratic apologists here talk about that issue. I have to conclude that, since they don’t openly support it, it must be a dirty deed they would rather push under the rug. But since I dont like ascribing opinions to people that they do not have, I am open to hearing about it from Democratic Party voters.
