6. Um
"...they need Dems to get re-elected as well as the right leaning indies in their districts"

The Dems in these districts are NOT the liberal types, so 'hitting the blue dogs hard' so that they will vote with liberals instead of their constituents, doesn't really work that well. IF we wanted to be represented by a liberal, we would elect one.

They keep blaming the repubs because that is easier than admitting that most Democrats do NOT agree with their policy in lockstep.
