The Democratic nominee and current President had a not-so-great debate performance, generating panic and calls, mostly from the media, and from small-fry Democratic party wannabes, for him to step down.

The Republican nominee has been convicted of rape, of business fraud on 34 felony accounts and is about to be sentenced, hopefully to prison, is indicted on multiple counts of election interference and of the theft of classified documents, lied through the debate, is hiding his party's progress in developing what is an extremely unpopular platform, and the media, along with members of his party, are silent.

So, it looks like sensible Democrats are taking this into their own hands, correcting the media through social media platforms, and here and there on MSNBC or in major daily newspapers, and calling for common sense and unity of purpose. And that appears to be working. Campaign funds are pouring in, grassroots support is rallying and the core constituencies of the Democratic party, including Blacks and Latinos, are solidifying their support behind him. That's the kind of common sense and unity of purpose that wins elections.

This is an election we must win, at all levels.
