0:00.0	especially in red districts where we're so far behind already, a loss is not a bad thing.
0:06.5	It's letting voters and other supporters know we're here and we're not going anywhere.
0:15.6	This is Sarah and Beth, your listening to Pant Suit Politics, the home of grace-filled political
0:20.9	conversations.
0:30.0	Hello everyone, welcome to another episode of Pant Suit Politics. We are so excited to be here today.
0:40.8	We're going to catch up on some news stories and share our interview with the team at Swing Left
0:46.1	later in the episode. But before we get started, we wanted to remind everyone to send us your

2:09.2	really seems to be a helpful way to share at least how we discuss politics with our children in our
2:14.3	houses. So, Pantsuit Politics on Instagram, we really don't want you to miss out.
