re: #328 goddamnedfrank
The thing is that if the party roles were reverse, if Democrats were the smaller party with wealth backers facing demographic extinction and Republicans actually were a “big tent,” then D_F’s position would be reverse. There’s absolutely zero principal behind his stance. It’s pure cynical gamesmanship demanded by his gang loyalty to the GOP as a brand, small d democracy be damned.
Indeed. I figure the quickest way to get the GOP behind this Amendment is for a couple Democratic billionaires to start slinging cash like the Kochs and Adelsons. Think their reaction to Soros, but times about 10-100.
