In 2018, I ran for the US Congress - somebody had to do something, right? Much has changed - divorced, kids are grown - I had a Twitter account, now it is on BlueSky with the same handle

I seek to one day be the greatest civics teacher, ever. Like ever.
Talk, understand, and debate (Dems are good at this!!) and come up with talking points for
A) cities, and
B) competitive House districts

Because the strength of Mamdani is bringing out new believers - but lets do that while staying competitive in swing districts and having talking points for them.

I think that's easy to say because in NYC, Dems outnumber Republicans 6 to 1. That's not typical of the USA. Its not.

But control of the House is contested in R+1, R+2, R+3 districts. Look at the centrist from southwest Washington state - Guelsenkamp.

Without attacking Mamdani-onomics, let's

We (Democrats) need to define Mamdani-onomics before other people do.

Look: AOC is from a district that used to be Dem +33 (before census/redistricting). That's not typical of USA.

I ran for Congress from a district that was R+15. That's a 45 point swing.

Mamdani's policies aren't meant for R+1

Thank you.

Integrity always matters.

Acknowledgment of actual errors is strength and never weakness.

Request to all:

Supply both a link and a picture of the offending action.

That way we can see the offense even after they run.
