162. Thanks for the reply, We agree a lot more than we disagree

Yes you have never defended Weaver, and I also believe Weaver much of the blame for Bernie not winning the nomination. Too many strategic blunders.

I like the idea of Our Revolution. Any group out there helping progressives and left liberals run for office is great.

I just bristle at the shade Ms. Turner attempts to throw on people who donate to Democrats. Like Rove's Crossroads GPS, Nina doesn't have to disclose who donates to Our Revolution. This is not the right analogy but it feels a little hypocritical, like people in glass houses throwing stones.

100% Agree we should continue should be taking a strong stand against bigotry, continue fighting voter suppression, and continue working for economic justice. That's always been my view and always will be

That being said I don't think anyone on DU is a centrist. We are pretty much surrounded by progressives and left liberals. I think we pretty much all agree in terms of core values and what we fight for.

I haven't seen anyone arguing for centrist positions on the economy or trade, maybe I am just mentally blocking those posts out?

But then again there are lots of things I don't understand about DU right now.

As I said, The majority of DU'ers seem to agree on pretty much everything ideological. But there are all sorts of distractions and 'controversies' lately that seem to be getting people at each other's throats (Beyoncé's New House, Tina Fey's Sheet-cake). Maybe I am too old to grasp DU anymore.
