Apr 2018

Why is it that, in response to an OP about a program to train Democratic candidates, nobody has a comment about the program itself? All the responses are sniping at the sponsors on other grounds.

I guess mentioning that word "Progressive", let alone the phrase "Our Revolution", was just too great a provocation.

OK, now that everyone has unloaded on The Enemy for helping Democrats do well in the 2018 elections, we can go back to saying how important it is that Democrats do well in the 2018 elections.
