Edit to add: Sorry I didn’t include the inciting incident before I took off to Mothers Day brunch. You can find it downthread.

1. What tweet?

3. The Steve Schmidt rant yesterday...

He spotted Meghan McCain after she dissed him over something she was wrong about.

6. I don't think it's that tweet.

After all, you're not going to lose any points with the left for bashing megan mccain.

I assume it's the tweet that, after praising RBG for her trailblazing and pioneering career, and her lifelong fight to expand rights, suggested that it might have been better if she had retired earlier. An opinion shared by many people here in good standing.

8. Oh. I missed that one.

Now I have to go find it.

Thanks!

4. nolabear, do you happen to have the link to Steve Schmidts rant near your fingertips? :)

I'm supposed to be getting ready for Mother's Day brunch, and I couldn't help myself from doing a quick browse on Du and found this post.

7. ... like WTF ?! ... McCain's campaign ?! JUST DAMN !!! RussiaPublicans need to be investigate NOW

[Karadeniz]

10. I think Steve and Rick have seen the light...

[Salviati]

11. I don't think that they've seen the light in the sense that they are not democrats...

... and I wouldn't trust them to be leaders in our party. But I do think they've seen the light in the sense that they now understand that there are some prices not worth paying for victory, and that to keep a democracy you have to accept it when your side loses. I think that they understand that in order to save American democracy, the republican party needs to lose hard, and be driven from power, if not destroyed. I wouldn't want either of them in my party, but I'd be much more comfortable with a republican party where they were the flag bearers of that party.

12. Yep, and IIRC, Schmidt joined the Democratic Party a while back.

Wilson hasn't reached that point yet, but he's certainly a lot closer to Schmidt than he is to the others on that list.
