Nice to see a non-establishment person win in a place they were never supposed to win though even though I disagree with her on many things. I heard reports that the guy she ran against didn't even show up to the debates and instead sent someone else. What a jack ass.
If Trump can win never holding public office. And if Obama can win only after a few years please.
And again, it isn't that liberals don't have the right ideas, WE DO. If our voters would participate like the GOP has for the past 30 years, in every election, I doubt you'd have a problem with the "establishment".
You cant expect much if you don't do much. The GOP in the past 30 years have held the majority of power of all three branches PRECISELY because their voters show up and liberal voters do not.
If your quarterback gets sacked on every other play, and your offensive line sucks, it is hard to expect even Obama to get things done. Even when we elect someone sane like Obama, he gets hamstrung because the voters don't vote in county, state and governors nationwide. If all we do is focus on national elections that does not help.
Grassroots is how the GOP wins, and that is how we can win.
She is proof that grassroots works.
I'm going to push back on your quote about grassroots helping the GOP win. What really pushes them towards victory is nothing but lies and conspiracies. And somehow this stupid country continues to elect them.
