re: #266 Belafon

From Schmidt:

There are going to be conservatives, and we kind of expect that (two functioning parties, and if Democrats are the liberals, than someone else will be conservative). But the fact that he’s pushing Democratic majorities to save the country is still a pretty big step.

Then there is Richard Painter that dropped being a Republican and is running as a Democratic candidate for Al Franken’s Senate in Minnesota.

That is a pretty bold step.

Again…if all this helps make the Democratic party stronger in the future and attracts more people to declare they are Democrats it is good.
