1. Totally false headline

The title is bullshit since NOTHING in the story indicates the Proggessive Caucus doesn't, as you put it, "care if Democrats regain the House". They do, and there isn't one quote or anything else in the article that indicates that. Not only that, but how is rescinding their endorsement mean the Democrats would lose this district. I thought headlines from the article were to be used when posting. Not only is this not the headline but it is a completely false take on the article.

If you're going to put your own perjerotive take on it, put it separately from the article. If you have any ethics you would change it.

In General Discussion -- which this is -- headlines do not have to be taken from articles. former9thward Jun 2024 #5

Here is a head line about Bowman's opponent. "Latimer Fails to Disclose Finances in Closely-Watched Democratic Primary" Uncle Joe Jun 2024 #7

Unlike Bowman, Jones is the lone Democrat challenging a Republican incumbent in a purple district. RandySF Jun 2024 #10

So that gives you the right to make up a false headline? Doc Sportello Jun 2024 #16

I think the headline is quite accurate RandySF Jun 2024 #19

Not one word in that article backs up your claim Doc Sportello Jun 2024 #20
