This is why I am reluctant to give money to the DNC, DSCC, and DCCC: too often the "leaders" of the party are too busy trying not to offend the wealthy to actually do what those who vote and pound the pavement for Democratic candidates want and need.

If the Democratic Party doesn't stand up for the middle class and labor rights in Wisconsin and elsewhere, progressives will eventually take their time, money, and VOTES elsewhere.
