I meant no offense in the Tom Perez thread.

I posted it as one of the earliest Bernie supporters on DU, not as an outsider.

There HAS been an issue with the way some people associated with our movement have behaved in moments of frustration and setback, and I still think we as a movement have to find a way of addressing that, but I phrased the OP badly.

If you're supporting the Tom-Keith partnership, good.

Sometimes I do that by calling on us to do better.

I'm sorry.
