Greger, you’re much like me. You take the reality of the situation and go from there without letting emotion take over. I totally agree with what you said in your last two posts. You said the same thing I was trying, but in a lot less words.
I don’t think the Democrats like pro-life democrats. At least elected, incumbent, democratic house representatives that are pro-life. The Democrats defeated 3 of them in 2020 in their democratic primaries only to lose all 3 seats that if those pro-life incumbent democrats had run would have won. What that has done to the overall picture of this year’s midterms is that the GOP needs a net gain of 5 instead of 8. I’d say the democrats shot themselves in the foot with their pro-choice litmus test. That’s just my opinion
I’m more of an election strategist, a pragmatist, even a compromiser if that is what it takes to get me at least some of what I want. I’m no stand on my principle with the all or none options which none usually is the results. It’s not that I prefer the real world to my fantasy one, but I’m smart enough to realize which one I must live in and make the best of it.
