22. Will they think of Moveon as the Dem Party?
Or will they see it as a fringe group dictating to the Party. Dems should already know better. We have to convince the middle to come with us. If they spent the money explaining the issue to the people before the vote and told them to contact there Rep it would be a wiser use of funds,IMO. At this point in time we can not throw out DINOs unless we have candidates to replace them, who can also get elected. Do you know how many other Dems voted for this bill? If we threw them all out we would not be able to influence anything. I do not like their vote but it is one of many. What about the members who voted for the Schindler bill? You would decimate the CBC if you threw them out. We cannot bargain from a position of weakness. We must regain our strength and the we can have a say at the table.
