Everyone is in a quandary, wondering why the political left keeps losing elections. I have yet to see any solid analysis. Poll after poll proves wrong in every election season, yet the party still can’t figure out why it’s losing.
Instead of becoming a bit more reflective, they decide it’s easier to blame others for their failure. This results in lengthy media stories about interference, illegal activity or droning dissertations on conspiracy theories. I think America is getting fed up with this whining and crying.
Perhaps it’s time for new leadership and a new way of thinking at the DNC. Here are a few thoughts:
Assuming racial lenses on everything without thought is growing tiresome. Acceptance of illegal aliens walking unchallenged into our country to build a new life is likewise a bad idea. Providing free services to said individuals while the citizenry pays more for the same services is also not acceptable.
Growing animosity toward those of Christian faith, while pandering to other faiths maybe a bad idea. Calling me derogatory names because I believe that other factors could be causing climate change (beside human activity) isn’t helping secure my vote.
Playing the wealth-envy game and confiscating money for liberal causes will not encourage me either, especially when they are diametrically opposed to my value system and are not in alignment of what the government was designed to do.
The list goes on and on. The left has gone so far left and the media has egged them on for so long that I don’t believe they can even see what’s really causing them to lose elections. A robust debate with two parties is healthy for the country, right now we can’t have that debate.
