(13,877 posts)They talk about it all the time. It is highly relevant to how they position the local/county races and they work with the State Organization who then interfaces with the National Organization. (And so do the Republicans)
He and the county Democrats lean Progressive, and if someone else shows up as relevant, it just shifts the conversation and makes it even more interesting. But you can bet they will vote for the candidate who wins the Primary...and that work is going on right now.
There are truly shades of gray in politics and lots of conversations to be had. The only irrelevant conversations are those after being in the individual balloting stall when you have to pull a level, click on a name, or check off a box. Until then, every political influence, coffee chat, conversation at work is influential and important and wields greater influence than even a private vote.
So, my thoughts would be that those who are so very dissatisfied with the Democratic Party due to their definition of insufficient options and grudges from the past, they are the ones that should wait until after 2016, because that crap influences other, less politically evolved people. Why? Often because they don't know enough, or because they just get tired of the BS and stay home.
Say something good or just, please, wait at least until 2016 and even then try to tone it down a bit for the less-informed masses.
