Winning

Laura Clawson wrote a great piece today for Daily Kos  in which she argues that it's important to realize that Donald Trump didn't just lose the debates--Hillary Clinton won them.  She showed herself to be more knowledgeable, more experienced, have a better temperament, to be smarter, and frankly, by far and away the best candidate to lead the people of the United States.

We as a party would be wise to realize much the same about her victory on November 8th--Clinton's margin of victory will be greater than it might have been because Trump is such a piss poor candidate, but a majority of Americans were still voting for our candidate before his candidacy imploded because we have better ideas, grow the economy better, look out for average Americans, are more inclusive, aren't racist, homophobic, or misogynistic, and frankly, have shown over the course of the last eight years that we are much better at running the country than republicans are.

No matter how the national median spins it, this will be a victory for progressive policies and a sound rebuke once again of the failed conservative agenda.

Peace,
