I agree with you. Elected Dems have a clear disdain for their own voters who expect more out of them. I say we send a good majority of those who believe that way, home.

If this is what ends up making Stephen Lynch be overly defensive and not as receptive to his own voters, well, then he could lose to a primary challenge next year. That is not out of the realm of possibilities.
On the other hand, I am not one who wants to get in a purity fight with fellow Democrats.
I don't think it's about purity, per say. I personally believe the battlefield has changed. Norms are being stripped away daily and people don't want to return to a system that doesn't work for them. I just don't believe elected officials who could vote on the Iraq War are ready for the challenge ahead and it's well past time to pass the torch to people who are ready for the fight/challenge.
I agree with what youтАЩre saying. Fighting against Trump is not about purity at all.
Putting aside this issue for a moment, I donтАЩt want the conversation to go beyond the issue to the extent where itтАЩs about fighting over who is more liberal than each other. That crap pisses me off.
