(961 posts)They put their money where their mouth is. They're doing what they believe is best for the country and the Democratic Party, so good for them. You can call them whatever names you want (as if they give a damn) but they are working and doing what it takes to exert influence where a lot of others aren't.
You want the same results they get? Put some skin in the game equal or greater than they have. That requires a lot of work; something, it seems, a whole bunch of people who holds similar views to yours aren't willing to do. Until then, all those in power are hearing is a tingling little bell somewhere far off in the distance.
I will give you credit in that you call out those here who are what I refer to as the "Obama can do no wrong" crowd. They deny that's who they are, but it's more than obvious they are exactly that. It should comfort you they have no skin in the game either, and for the same reasons. But they vote Democratic every election without fail, which is good. But otherwise they are all Captain Dunsel.
