Still, I was surprised that he, like other big name Repubs is so much openly right there with the Dems. Its been said before - "not a dimes worth of difference," is one phrase used widely, and the term "republocrat" is old.

"The Party" is not the Party leadership. It is two things. An organisational structure, and aaaaall the people that belong to it. Not the leaders. The leaders plus all the rest. Right now, both major Parties can forget the way they "handled business" in the past. Today, both are somewhat "in schism." Sure, Dem leadership is facing Nov telling their candidates to ignore Dem priorities, to say and do what they must. Thats a fine strategy when you have strong control over your voting base. If that strong control means you can count on your base to come out when asked on election day, even if they are gonna be disappointed by seeing their Dem candidates dodge and weave about, saying whatever they have to say to appeal to the other parties' voters to get some established old folks re-elected - hey, if that works, great. There's a problem with that plan, tho. The Dem base has some Dems who are barely Dems, i.e., Progressives didnt leave the Dems as some did; who have not renounced the Dems in anger and disgust during and after the last election - they are not the same as the leaders. The leaders are Clinton/Corpo Dems. They can be seen exemplified by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. He explained during the last big Presidential Dem Disaster Campaign what the Dem Party leadership was thinking - "yes, we will loose some traditionally likely Dem voters, but we will gain more likely Repub voters..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUXnLhj441I The host of the YouTube show in that link is one of the Progressives who did not stay with the Party. He had been a die-hard Dem. He now acts like he died and came back looking for vengeance for the treatment he and other Bernie fans got in the last campaign. Hes one of the ones that felt so "burned" by that treatment that even during the fight against Candidate Trump, he tried to get Dems to vote for Jill Stein or anyone but Hillary. He was so anti-Dem that he wanted them to lose because of the raw, obvious unfairness of how they stomped on Bernie in the Primaries. The Dem candidates hear their Party leaders, but all that means is that those leaders won't pressure them to act "anti-Trump," and will give them money support. That still leaves them facing a State with a mix of partisan Dems and Repub voters. Neither one at all in the mood for compromise! Its gonna be very interesting to see how these six vote. nondisclosed_email@example.com (greendocnowciv)Fri, 13 Jul 2018 16:40:27 +0000 Re: The Problem: the Right is Evil.https://bescapevelocity.runboard.com/p9935,from=rss#post9935https://bescapevelocity.runboard.com/p9935,from=rss#post9935Their ain't nothing local about these guyz. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/17/business/george-soros-open-society-foundations.html https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/20/us/politics/mike-bloomberg-democrats-election.html https://www.denverpost.com/2018/05/28/tom-steyer-colorado-2018-election/ https://variety.com/2018/politics/news/hollywood-midterms-conor-lamb-1202726846/ This doesn't include gubernatorial races nondisclosed_email@example.com (spud100)Fri, 13 Jul 2018 16:15:28 +0000 Re: The Problem: the Right is Evil.https://bescapevelocity.runboard.com/p9911,from=rss#post9911https://bescapevelocity.runboard.com/p9911,from=rss#post9911quote:Trump-hating Dems will not forgive any of the six who vote for Brett. Eh, you assume that the Democratic party is more vindictive than it is. The democratic party cares more about their candidates getting elected than some kind of party loyalty. quote:House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday appeared to embrace a strategy by some Democratic candidates to openly oppose her as they run for Congress. "I think if they had to do that to win the election, I'm all for winning," she said at a Politico Playbook event in Washington. She was asked specifically about a report from The Washington Post on a slew of Democratic candidates who have publicly vowed to oppose Pelosi should Democrats retake the majority and elect a new speaker. Since 2016, the Democrats have been much more willing to embrace local politics. Instead of trying to enforce some sort of national set of policies, they've been trying to find candidates that match the specific demographics of individual states/districts. This is the reason why you have a relatively conservative Senator like Donnelly in a conservative leaning state, while you have progressives winning in bluer states.nondisclosed_email@example.com (luciddream00)Fri, 13 Jul 2018 13:02:56 +0000 The Problem: the Right is Evil.https://bescapevelocity.runboard.com/p9908,from=rss#post9908https://bescapevelocity.runboard.com/p9908,from=rss#post9908Similar "impossible-to-survive" metrics were attached to Candidate Trump.

The actions of a handful of Senate Democrats struggling to hold their seats in red states where Mr. Trump remains popular — notably Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota, Joe Donnelly of Indiana and Joe Manchin III of West Virginia — will have broad implications for the party at a critical political juncture. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/07/us/politics/democrats-supreme-court-nominee.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thats from a source most libbo's revere, the NY Times.
