Our Next “Impossible” Blue Tsunami Task: How to Win When You’re Blue in a Red State (12 mini podcast episodes for the next 12 days!)
Appears in this episode
You and I and millions of others in our Blue Tsunami this fall stopped the predicted red wave — and now what’s left of the Republicans finds them in complete discombobulation. And the January 6th final report is every bit as damning as we thought it would be.
Now it’s time to take on the next job the pundits will proclaim we will have no chance at accomplishing: Start turning some red states and counties BLUE! I say it can be done — I’ve done it personally! — and there are so many examples of flipping red to blue in last month’s midterms that we must keep this momentum going!
In this podcast series between now and January 6th, I will show you practical strategies that will keep the Republicans off guard and unaware that we are in the process of pulling the literal rug right out from under them in the 2024 election. If you live in a red area — or have family or friends who do — you won’t want to miss this blueprint I’m laying out for us to win and bring an end to most of the right wing madness.
Please listen and share with others! No one will see this coming! More fun! More Blue!
Thanks all and happy holidays!!

Blue Dots in a Red Sea (Ep. 1)
I like what Trevor Noah said on his farewell show... to talk issues, not party. I live in rural Colorado and was the top canvasser for the Dems... especially to defeat Lauren BOEBERT. I talked to so many people who disliked her but would finally admit that they always voted Republican and always would. THAT is the error of talking blue vs red instead of ISSUES.
I plan to start canvassing in January testing that philosophy. ( I guess you heard that BOEBERT won re-election by only 551 votes instead of 20,000 votes 2 years before).

Just the other night, I had looked up Beto O'Rourke, wanting to know how I could work with him to try turning Texas blue. I visited his old campaign website and clicked on one of his post-election tweets. Taken directly to Beto's Twitter page, I found his very positive, very productive posts. Even after a devastating loss, Beto is still standing and still fighting for us. He's amazing. I don't know how he manages to remain positive even after everything that has happened, but he does. Of course, some of the responses to his posts were as nasty as you'd expect from hard-right, red-state Republican voters. I hid some of these people, not wanting to deal with them.
But then, I decided that maybe they should hear from me. They should hear that not everyone shares their thoroughly negative, nasty ideologies. So I responded to a couple of these fellow Texas voters and told them this:
"There are more people who want no more gun deaths, no more corruption, no more cruelty, no more hatred, no more misogyny, no more starvation, and no more injustice. There are a lot more of us than there are of you. We will prevail."
So far, I have not gotten one response from either of the people I sent this comment to. But I said what I and many more know to be true. I will not stay silent. WE will not stay silent--not in Texas, not in Florida, not in Tennessee. Not ANYWHERE.
