what is it with all the incognito REPUBLICANS on this board? you openly want the republican (mitt flip flop romney) to win over a democrat?
i mean, criticizing Obama’s one thing, but you’re doing something else. suuuuuure, you’re a progressive. /snark

Jane, I think you are extremely smart, creative, and I recognize that you know more about Washington inside baseball than I can ever hope to.
I have a question about your call to “punish” progressives that vote against their constituencies. It has to do with how you talk about the Tea Party.
Time and again in your posts you credit the Tea Party for having super discipline, and “taking out” the people that disagree with them.
But we know based on great journalism that the Tea Party is actually a small astro-turfed “movement” invented by corporate media ( Fox News ) & corporate oligarchs ( like the Koch Bros ).
It’s not like the Tea Party are brilliant little-guy organizers, or politically savvy geniuses. It’s just that they side with the rich corporate oligarchs that actually run this country!
My point is, isn’t it the case that the right-wing movement is _always_ more politically effective than the left-wing one BECAUSE it sides with the rich and powerful?
It just seems like you’re making the Tea Party out to be more effective than they actually are. When really, it’s just that those deluded fools happen to be cheering for the side that is _actually_ effective: ( i.e. the corporate oligarchs ).
I’m sorry if I’m posting this in the wrong place. I love your analysis, and literally signed up for this site so I could ask you this question.
