This is what some around here fail to gather....THOSE are the Democrats you need to be "hating on"....THEY... not some that are so often called "Centrists" "Authoritarian" and "ThirdWay" around here....are what we should be focusing on. There are about a half dozen or so actual BLUE DOGS left. The last Midterm took about half their numbers out and replaced them with Teabagger candidates.....But THESE guys.....they are the true wolves in sheeps clothing some on DU are on a witch hunt about but are focussing on the entirely wrong ones....AND it gives THESE guys cover! While you are bashing every Democrat not named Elizabeth Warren....these guys are left out of the news cycle! Look at em...you barely know their names! You have to ask yourself....."why is that"? "Why haven't we heard those names..." "Why aren't we talking about THEM and the things THEY are voting for and against." So the people that are in a position to vote for them....KNOWS who they are and what they are about! Drive a wedge between them and the constituents.....and they will primary him and a fresh Democrat will step up to take their place...

And what do you do about these people? I agree with Randi Rhodes parting advice (besides vote and take someone with you to vote).....is to SHAME them!

Shame them....put them on display and openly show disgust for their positions.....Don't ignore them....SHAME them!
