Yeah, I read about that. I have zero doubts he'd be winning in the polls if he was just being himself. He hasn't even had a public appearance since the consultants took over, probably so no one can ask him why he's suddenly silent about Medicare for all and Palestine.

It's almost like they gave up. They can't possibly think this is working. The DNC motto is "if we can't win our way, we'd rather lose" and they appear to be following that.

Good point. I wonder how many of these disagree with the "no civil disobedience" stance that Indivisible has. I do think these protests are helpful overall, even if the organizations running it are doing it for the wrong reasons.

No I'm pretty sure both have the same effectiveness.

more effective at annoying me. I saw a gaggle of protesters on my drive running errands. I support their message but If you're not being a problem for the people causing the problem then your protest amounts to a fit.

They're going to treat you like a toddler whining about nap time and just let you tire yourself out. If they're not afraid of you they won't take your concerns seriously.
