You're asking if any of the brand new DNC officers is a pro-right wing holdover? lapucelle Feb 2025 #2

Correct. Think. Again. Feb 2025 #3

Yeah, that never happened, lapucelle Feb 2025 #12

Perhaps you didn't notice the centrist Democrat movement. Think. Again. Feb 2025 #13

What are you talking about? lapucelle Feb 2025 #15

You're being silly... Think. Again. Feb 2025 #16

You asked if any "pro-right" officers were elected. lapucelle Feb 2025 #21

Correct, I asked if any of the Dems ... Think. Again. Feb 2025 #22

No. You asked if any members were holdovers from an apocryphal "pro-right Third Way fiasco". lapucelle Feb 2025 #25

Correct... Think. Again. Feb 2025 #27

Why don't you check back in once you've identified the "pro-right" DNC officers lapucelle Feb 2025 #28

That's why I posed the question that asked if any of them were.... Think. Again. Feb 2025 #30

Get back to us when you're done researching your question. N/T lapucelle Feb 2025 #33

It was I who raised the question, I'm hoping someone will get back to ME with an answer. Think. Again. Feb 2025 #34

I wonder if there are any holdovers from the far left way fiasco against Democrats that have successfully given rethugs JohnSJ Feb 2025 #50

Yes, those years you mention since 2000... Think. Again. Feb 2025 #56

No, starting with 2000, the green party and other so-called progressives gave us two terms of bush, the beginning of the JohnSJ Feb 2025 #61

Yes, as I mentioned... Think. Again. Feb 2025 #70

You can blame the DNC who put up shitty canidates for all of that. mucholderthandirt Feb 2025 #75

Moving the Party from the Left to the center is a rightward movement. Think. Again. Feb 2025 #74

We flipped two red seats blue in November and are already working on the 2025 County Executive election. lapucelle Feb 2025 #85

You're Awesome, Patriot! Mahalo So Much! Cha Feb 2025 #86

OMG, yes! I've seen it! The idea of wanting to start a third party is batshit crazy! Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #87

Looking forward .................... Lovie777 Feb 2025 #29

When was that? What are some examples of the party moving right? betsuni Feb 2025 #57

Indeed, I see consistent pattern of seizing every opportunity to deliver disparaging remarks aimed at Democrats. Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #10

Yes, moving the party from the Left to the center is a rightward movement. Think. Again. Feb 2025 #17

Someone floated the idea this week of disaffected Democrats joining up with antifa lapucelle Feb 2025 #23

I believe you're referring to me asking if that was what could or should happen... Think. Again. Feb 2025 #32

Oh good grief. You are free to "believe" what you want. However anyone who wants to continue that discussion * Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #36

I believe it was you that brought up my old post? Think. Again. Feb 2025 #39

Can you imagine feeling so entitled as to pose a ridiculous question lapucelle Feb 2025 #47

No, I cannot imagine personally having those feelings. But I've observed it in others frequently. Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #49

re: Hogg TnDem Feb 2025 #55

Didn't he say good riddance when Peltola lost her seat in Alaska? Self Esteem Feb 2025 #81

She was a moderate who didn't support gun reform. intheflow Feb 2025 #82

She represents Alaska lmao Self Esteem Feb 2025 #84

Excellent analogy. Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #48

You are correct. His selection was a mistake. Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #11

I don't know. Alliepoo Feb 2025 #14

Where's the balance? Does anyone want to "attract" a dozen voter at the expense of alienating hundreds? Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #37

In the end, David Hogg got the fewest votes of any vice chair who was elected yesterday. lapucelle Feb 2025 #20

Silver linings, I guess. Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #38

Appreciate he only got 2 votes. TY. Cha Feb 2025 #72

Some of us have higher standards and higher expectations in that regard. Others don't, obviously. Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #46

Oh, you have higher standards than... me? intheflow Feb 2025 #60

I think that our elected representatives should uphold high standards of decorum * Oopsie Daisy Feb 2025 #62
