(15,438 posts)S/He's not going to get anything done with a barely left-of-center Congress. That was the message I was trying to convey in the post you derisively dismissed.
For the record, I voted for Liberal Barbara Boxer both in her primary as well as the general.
I voted against Dianne Feinstein and for Mike Strimling (a true Liberal) in the primaries, but when he lost (got fewer votes than that crazy Orly Taitz) I had no choice but to vote for her in the general because I didn't want another Republican in the Senate. I want to work at getting more Elizabeth Warrens in Congress that will pave the way for a liberal president, otherwise we'll condemn that liberal president to becoming a one-term lame-duck - and the Neo-Confederates will cheer. I want our win to stick.
I can only hope that you live in a solid Democratic State which will afford you the luxury of not voting in 2016 or voting against the Democratic nominee who might not be to your liking. That's all I can hope for.
