In reply to the discussion: Enough of the LIE about the DNC not helping in WI. [View all]Are_grits_groceries
(17,139 posts)3. Please see this OP about lies:

And what do you expect to see a state functionary of the national party to say if he wants to remain in good graces!
BTW attacking the Republicans is easy. That's standard.
Holding your own party's feet to the fire is another matter. You get called a hitman for the Republicans.
If the people I expect to uphold Dems don't step up with the same fervor, then I am going to say it. Will they ever match what I and others want? Probably not. But they can damn sure get a lot closer than they are now.
The national Republicans have been operating for months.
