I refuse to believe that the dems were just outplayed or naive for 50 years.

The gambit now is can the REAL danger motivate the checked out masses to vote for the dems?

There is a problem in this logic. Why should anyone vote for a party that cant win?

Those that understand the implications of the danger would rather resort to new criminal activity that protects their safety than to vote for a party who cant or wont take victories.

Now people have not a reason to trust the dems but a very good reason to believe the dems are incapable of meeting any critical moment.
