Thank you Grace, but I think you're wrong. It's precisely the us vs them mentally that got the pivotal voters out this time. Think about the fact that Roy Moore was flat-out labeled as a pedophile and how the democrats fucking hammered that label hard. It was a page straight from the GOP playbook. The guy was very unqualified to hold the position he was campaigning for for a litany of reasons, but the pedophile angle was the dominant one. We did an amazing job of making his name synonymous with creeping for underage tail. If this is the way things are going to be in order for us to reclaim a solid hold on our government, so be it.
