117. In defense of the negativists

It's a common belief that threats from without are easier to defend against than threats from within. It is often said in various ways by various speakers that American liberty, for example, could only be threatened by forces within our boarders and not by any external force, like an invading army.

Well, A Democratic coalition unified against an opposition force, like Republicans, is something we can deal with even if we're in the minority. But when members of our own coalition weaken us internally against the oppression being proffered by our opposition - well, that's scary and worthy of criticism and negativity.

Yes, the fact that Joe comes with a "D" by his name means we get to hold the gavel and drive the agenda to a large degree. But, the man is preventing us from a full-throated delivery of the agenda we were elected on. And in doing so, he gives credibility to the other side. Since the other side has no credibility, this is a sin.

He needs to see a more mainstream Democrat run against him at the next election. We can't tolerate so-called "moderates" in a 50-50 senate.
