I remember seeing the name of the poster in question, but that is all I remember. However, I agree in part with what she apparently said in the quotes in OP. And you are proving the point.
"Nadin, and everyone who voted third party or deliberately stayed home in protest, are holding bloody towels from mopping up the blood on Republican hands."
Are you ready to accept responsibility for the actual blood on the hands of elected Democrats who vote for continuing military action in Yemen, Syria, etc?
Yes, Not electing Democrats harms what should be the agenda of the Democratic Party. But the kind of over the top holier-than-thou proclamations such as I have quoted invite criticisms like I have provided.
