(18,628 posts)Besides being incredibly arrogant, It points out what a narrow view you have of people and politics. Your attitude is clearly that I'm either 100% with you, or I'm a conservative corporate shill. I really don't think you have the ability to see slight nuance at all.
I don't care that you think appealing to the majority of voters who live life in Middle America is a simple matter of "my way or the highway", but if you want to hijack the Democratic Party and take it with you to the far left, you have some heavy lifting ahead of you and I think you have neither the ambition nor the ability. When you define me as a "conservative", you're breathing in rarefied air. The next time I'm out and get accused of being a teary-eyed liberal, I can cite you as the most credible judge of political character. That'll shut those Tea Baggers up when they discover that I'm just a carbon copy of themselves.
I'm not going to take it too much to heart though, because you're living life in a transparent bluff. When election day 2016 arrives, we'll be casting our vote for the same candidate. You can bluster and threaten all you want. You can cry about your uncompromising sanctimonious ideals for another two years, but in the end you'll help elect the very same "conservative corporate candidate" that I intend to volunteer my time and donations to, and you can pick back up right where you left off.
I'm not going to "waste" any more words on you, so you can leave the closet door open and continue your loud & proud work of alienating people who support good common sense democrats like Carter, Clinton, and Obama from your cause.
