I just can't believe it. And you know now, I bet every time it will just get worse and worse! That sounds pessimistic I know, but the US and who represents us, is just getting crazier. These die-hard baby boomers that only care about themselves. Oh gosh, now I am ranting LOL!!

Can't believe people aren't worried about him, and then you add the whack jobs he's surrounding himself with. :o

I agree! It is all I can do to keep my sanity at this time of year. I got an email from the DEM Party, I might even volunteer and I have never done that before.

I get bombarded with donation requests, but I don't give money to politics any more. :o

This one isn't to give money it is to go to a meeting and bring a laptop and work on the data base to find the people that attended the caucus. I probably won't do it, but it crossed my mind in this Republican state, it might help me feel more connected to some Dems ;-)

And I am not working right now, hmmm.

I feel your pain. I may live in a "blue" state, but it's a very RED corner of the state. UGH...

Oh, the red corner, ick!
I just don't want to get sucked in though and I like to be at home during the evenings. But it crossed my mind ;-)

And I hate to say it, once you volunteer for one thing the will call you year after year after year.

That is a very good point, thank you for reminding me of that!

That's how I keep getting talked into running our caucus. :o
Thankfully they are actually considering dropping the caucus and going with a primary. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We need a primary instead also, our caucus was a mess here. Maybe that will be your last one to work at :-)

I understand that caucuses are grassroots, but it doesn't really mean a thing when it comes to elections. The most radical voters will come out for them. Then when it moves on to the county convention, it all depends on who shows up as to which candidate gets the support. I prefer a straight forward vote.

I ended up glad I didn't go to our caucus as it turned out so crowded and chaotic, people couldn't even get in until it was almost over. I agree - just a vote is better.

The more I hear about the Green Party at this point, the wilder they sound.

I always thought the Green Party was just people that supported the environment. Apparently there is a whole other side to them. :o
