(5,312 posts)and big health insurance money and making efforts to water down health care and wall street reform and push for corporate-written rules for trade, it COMPLETELY undercuts the argument that Republicans are the corporate party and that Democrats care about us little people. Voters who don't pay attention (i.e., the vast majority of voters) therefore can't tell the difference, declare "a pox on both your houses" and end up voting on the basis of who's got a bigger flag, or sounds more macho, or shares their religion, or has the cutest dimples, or some other bullshit.
DLCers who think we have to suck up to Wall Street because they are smarter and more realistic and know better have been destroying the party bit by bit for more than 20 years. And the Scott Walker debacle is even more proof. We can't even convince workers anymore that we have their backs and RepubliCONs don't when Scott Walker openly and publicly declares war on working poeple. And we NEVER will convince workers we have their backs until we actually DO have their backs and people like Rahm Fucking Emanuel and DWS are out on their ears.
