Agree completely. They're likewise incorrect that they're ignored!

Since they're in the few swing states that actually determine the EC, they get a shit ton of attention: from the candidates and the media----to say nothing of $$$ and their projects given preference in congress. A more accurate example of "forgotten" would be us coastal elites, fully ignored, but expected to continue to subsidize all of them.

No wonder CA wants to secede!

I don't know. Maybe it's time to reallyshake up the House Democrats. For example, don't waste that political action figure, Rep Keith Ellison, by sending him to the DNC. Make him of the Midwest, Minnesota, the new House Democratic Leader. Stop rinse and repeat after the Democrats have just been bulldozed by Trumpence. Try and engage some of those 100 million eligible voters who didn't bother. Excite the younger Democratic voters with more than the Roman Catholic grandmother from posh Marin county, CA. Give them a liberal, younger, Muslim. Watch the Nation of Israel realize we are not their ATM machine. Place Michelle Obama at the DNC. She could make a hugh impact there.

Democrats don't think "who would motivate voters?", they think "whose turn is it?". That's how we got Hillary rather than Bernie. And if Nancy Pelosi's turn is over, then it's Steny Fucking Hoyer's turn. That's why we have Chuck Schumer now in the Senate, rather than Elizabeth Warren. And when Schumer's turn is over, we'll have to wait for Dick Durbin to have his turn. I'm not going to live that long. There will never be another sunny day for America in my lifetime. I have abandoned all hope.

California loves us some Nancy, not to mention WEED to go along with all-Dem statewide office holders, pristine coastline, 5th largest economy, etc. We should lead the nation out of the desperation.
