6. Why

Why is is that Republicans can dream big, and often succeed, whereas we Dems must always talk ourselves out of the big dreams because we must remain "realistic" and only yearn for those things we think we can maybe get.
We must offer the most milquetoast candidate because a radical would never win, yet Rump is the most radical on the planet and won twice.

Elect every possible dem senator and talk the fringe who would be glad to be rid of Rump and have no love for Vance to change their minds.

Dream big, reach far, hope for a bright future...or plan for failure and hope they don't hurt us anymore.

Jeez.
