re: #402 Targetpractice

Blue Dogs like those are the kind that succeed in the Midwest, in the South, in Appalachia. They’re the kind who got their asses ripped up one side and down the other for taking a gamble on the ACA. A 50 state strategy may give us back Congress, but it will not give us a glorious progressive revolution. It’s a one-or-the-other choice: A Democratic Congress or a progressive party. Can’t really have both.

That’s what I’ve tried telling progressive purists for years. Okay, you want a progressive party, that’s good but if you want a majority in Congress, the way we’re set up, you will have some conservative Dems that you won’t like. I mean I do think there’s a dividing line somewhere and I guess that’s the real struggle.
