(55,981 posts)A REPUBLICON NEVER GOT ELECTED. a REP wasn't put in office. Progressives worked hard to elect a progressive Democrat. But Conservative Democrats are ok that this particular Democrat got elected by Republicons and caucuses with them.
Here are my exact words, " Hundreds (truthfully it was about 75 on the day I went) went door to door in the freezing rain to try to get a progressive Democrat to defeat a Conservative Democrat. Sadly the Republicons came to the rescue of the Conservative Democrat."
Since you won't say anything about your own ideas or positions I will have to guess. You, like the OP want, for some reason, to disparage the progressive wing of the Party. You are ok with Conservative Democrats that caucus with Republicons because they have Democrat behind their name.
