Many dedicated California Democrats are understandably disappointed and disillusioned by her position in the Nevada debacle. Most of us have been grateful for her service as Senator, although we reluctantly concede, just as you suggest, that she is part of the Establishment. Ironically, I think serving alongside Dianne DINO Feinstein has made Boxer seem like more of an anti-establishment progressive than she actually is.
But no self-respecting Democrat (or decent human being for that matter), as disappointed as she or he may be, would brand Boxer with such hateful epithets. It would be a big mistake to paint those who respectfully but strenuously disagree with her on this matter with such a broad brush.
