Yesterday

As a WOC I was hoping she'd stay put in the House and wasn't fond of the constant media clapbacks. We need someone with an agenda they are for, not choose someone because they are passionate against someone or because they continue to perpetuate the ABW stereotypes that some of us already are up against. The Squd evolved and matured into their roles; unfortunately, she did not. She is selling a brand, and that is not long-lasting.

This message was self-deleted by its author 33taw Yesterday #59

In my view, Martin is an utter failure. Lonestarblue Yesterday #36

Yep, such an utter failure that Democrats have flipped around 30 seats through special Wiz Imp Yesterday #37

I'm not sure that has anything to do with Martin. YodaMom2 Yesterday #42

Isn't that convenient. He gets no credit for winning but would get trashed for losing. Wiz Imp Yesterday #50

Perhaps you might want to re-read what I wrote. YodaMom2 Yesterday #57

Where did I say you trashed him? The poster I originally responded to absolutely Wiz Imp Yesterday #63

You actually replied to my comment, so I assumed you were speaking to me. YodaMom2 Yesterday #65

I don't have an opinion on the job he has done - we have flipped a lot of seats. My question is how often does the DNC 33taw Yesterday #60

AG when we get the White House back. Borchkins Yesterday #6

is she giving up her seat in the House? yellow dahlia Yesterday #7

I could be wrong, but... Happy Hoosier Yesterday #10

Oh right. I think I heard something like that. I forgot. Thanks. yellow dahlia Yesterday #11

The primary was yesterday. Too late to run for a Congressional seat in 2026. Wiz Imp Yesterday #38

Thanks. A loss to the House. yellow dahlia Yesterday #62

Correct - Texas GOP gerrymandered both her TBF Yesterday #14

I was thinking the same thing PatSeg Yesterday #34

Not sure about that Renew Deal Yesterday #9

OMG, that's perfect! intheflow Yesterday #12

Jeffries is not the DNC chair, he's the House minority leader. Ocelot II Yesterday #16

Absolutely Not!!!! Sunnyskies801 Yesterday #13

Sounded like a good idea to me. mysteryowl Yesterday #33

I know its well intentioned. Sunnyskies801 Yesterday #43

The Democratic party ran Kamala Harris for America's President. mysteryowl Yesterday #49

Please tell us what you want dems to do for black women? Keepthesoulalive Yesterday #61

It would be blatant pandering JustAnotherGen Yesterday #46

No. I like her but she's too combative for that position. Ocelot II Yesterday #15

She will likely not be in Congress next year. Happy Hoosier Yesterday #25

But fighting loudly isn't the DNC's job. Fundraising and organizing is its job. Ocelot II Yesterday #27

Likely? Try definitely. Wiz Imp Yesterday #39

I like that idea angrychair Yesterday #17

the party chair role is mostly background. themaguffin Yesterday #18

Fundraising and organizing, not policy. Ocelot II Yesterday #20

Absolutely! awesomerwb1 Yesterday #19

She'd be bad at it. DNC's job is organizing and fundraising, not policy. Ocelot II Yesterday #21

That's your opinion awesomerwb1 Yesterday #24

DNC is a career killer. She should run for President. WSHazel Yesterday #22

Can we at least see her win a state race first before that? themaguffin Yesterday #23

Run as an issue candidate WSHazel Yesterday #30

If you want to her to run as an "issue" candidate as a path to an alternative role, then lead with that. themaguffin Yesterday #32

No chance as President I think. Happy Hoosier Yesterday #26

She doesn't need to get the nomination WSHazel Yesterday #31
