And many of us like it better without consequences.

Looking at the results from last Tuesday’s constitutional referendum initiative that searched to outlaw abortion in Kansas, it’s pretty clear that the midterms will be defined in large part by this topic.

If a deep-red state like Kansas overwhelmingly supports abortion rights, just like opinion polls have shown most people in the US do, maybe it calls for a new in strategy in the midterms to get a couple more seats in Congress. Or at least not lose everything.

So Dems, may I suggest: let’s talk about sex, baby.

Yes, I want to see every Democrat from Bernie Sanders and Katie Porter to Nancy Pelosi and Joe Manchin get on their Salt-N-Pepa and talk about some good, old-fashioned banging.

I’m only half-joking.

Just don’t do it in a creepy way, Joe.
