For a few weeks now I have joined my fellow partisan Democrats, drinking when I was not crying.
The awful memories of those stunned TV commentators snatching defeat from the jaws of a great early exit poll victory. The hard-earned accomplishments of the past 8 years now at risk due to and an unfit, unwelcome new president. Looking ahead to the damage inevitably inflicted by a unified Republican government on the environment, the social safety net and global leadership.
Yet as a new year begins, I find myself past the 5th stage of grief and on to an unexpected new state of mind: optimism.
Because looking beyond the ashes of 2016 and the inevitable initial defeats of 2017, I see immense opportunities for my party and our capacity to lead our country.
It’s a great time to be a Democrat. There are several reasons why.
First and most important, Democrats remain the party of the future. We are the young, the diverse, the tolerant and the educated. Trump’s negative appeals to fear, intolerance and hatred sow the seeds of future Republican defeats and marginalization.

Democrats are the party of white genocide.
Even the photo used in the article illustrates it. What is that kid, a Mexican anchor baby with a gang symbol on his head?
Great post!
Forgot to add ....we're major losers
Every single name in that list has the proper diversity credentials so as to properly represent the democRat party.
Black, gay, asian, Hispanic, female.
There are third graders who write better than this. Do you know what a complete sentence is, Mr. Educated?
I have several young relatives that I see posting on FB that they are so glad that 2016 is over because it was the worst year of their lives. I know for a fact that they are young, healthy, successful careers, happy healthy children . I think they are talking about Hillary losing! LOL!
No surprise there, right? These are the same people who see “diversity” and equate that directly to “quality”.
That was likely no accident. I would be astonished if this person didn’t first write down all the liberally “protected” groups, and search for names in the Democrat Party to match up to them for inclusion in his opinion piece.
I would literally be astonished if the “author” had created that paragraph without doing just that, because...that is what they do.
Your young stayed away in droves because the DNC stole the election from Bernie...
The meme that democrats are more educated than conservative middle class voters is getting really, really, really old...
They may have gone to a college, but by no means did they get a higher education...
At this point I would be ashamed to call myself a democrat. Barry has just finalized the deal, proving what a bunch of low life, traitorous, lying sacks of cr*p the democrats have become.
I would take that bet.
And for public transportation they must have 1870s choo-choo trains.
Government anything is mostly a jobs program for Democrats that wouldn't otherwise be employed.
“Because I’m good enough, I’m smart enough and doggone it, people like me”....
The future? Tammy Duckworth might actually be dumber than Tennis Shoes Patty Murray - Openly Gay South Bend Mayor Buttigieg is turning that city into the next Gary, Indiana. If this is the future, The Democrat bench is empty...
“The party of the future- unchangeably wedded to a 1950’s model of health care financing, a 1930’s model of public pensions and an 1870’s model of public education.”
All led by the philosophy of a 19th century loser.
Party of the YOUNG my Arse!
Harry Reid: “It depends on who’s running. It appears we’re going to have an old folks’ home. We’ve got [Elizabeth] Warren; she’ll be 71. Biden will be 78. Bernie [Sanders] will be 79.”
Sweeeet dreams, baby, too bad my dreams will not come true.....
Youtube has it all.
DemocRATS whistling past the graveyard.
ROTFL!! :-D
