So are you saying the Democratic party can win without Progressives voting for them in elections? Autumn Nov 2021 #37

I progressives refuse to vote Democratic, the party will have to move right to pick off more Demsrule86 Nov 2021 #45

Democrats can have the progressive vote anytime they want it. By simply not moving to the right. Autumn Nov 2021 #46
