but still....a dude that did not seem to support Obama on very many issues including ACA.

We could turn Congress progressive blue if that were the case?

(17,600 posts)7. We are so much better off without those 30 Dems in the House! oh wait ...
Too bad they couldn't have been replaced by better Dems. The problem is WE punish our party transgressors in November at the general; Republicans punish THEIRS in the spring, at the primary.
Trying to send a message in in the general election only helps republicans win. If you don't like the democrat that is in office, then find someone better to run against them in the primary. Change is made in the primaries.

... some red state Dems were 'excused' by Pelosi for voting for it once she had all the votes she needed in her pocket.
