14. All the "progressive" candidates in these primaries are hardly progressive. That is not the point.

They are less conservative then the ones that are in there....Bennett, Specter (former Repub) and Lincoln. I mean, Romanoff was head of a chapter of the DLC in Colorado. And Sestak is not a progressive. Halter may not be one either. The point is wanting your voice to be heard and a politician not take your vote for granted. But anyone who claims these candidates are ultra progressive is lying to themselves.
