As a Democrat myself, I am appalled at the state of attrition the party is in. It's alarming how all our heroes are senior citizens, and there does not seem to be any cultivation of powerful young new blood coming up. The Republicans have dozens of young or youngish politicians, we have an empty bench. <br /><br />Seriously, who should we propose for 2020? It's staggering how remiss the Democratic party has been in cultivating new young talent. Yes, Obama came seemingly out of nowhere, but he was a once in a lifetime star. It's just authentically disturbing and strange that there's no younger guard coming up. We should have ten or twenty of them in national life right now. Where are they? Why is every Democrat I admire 70 years old or so? And Republicans have dozens of up-and-comers so much younger? This is a terrible situation. And this lack of planning, cultivating new talent, really could be the death of the Democratic party. But why? This was so avoidable. Who is on the horizon?

He's a former governor and he needs to be TOLD how to attack Team Trump, the most target-rich opponent since America sailed ships up and down the east coast helpfully illuminated for the German U-boats by the brightly illuminated cities.<br /><br />Yes it's pathetic that the Democrats are so disorganised, but that doesn't mean sitting on your ass doing nothing until you get some instructions from head office. Just assume the order has been "Fire at will". Any attack is better than no attack, and who knows, you might even get some more Democrats following you. It's called leadership.Ken_Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11709548046018362581noreply@blogger.com
