I'm not sure I like this prospect.

I don't want the people that butchered Iraq on this side. It's like the RINO keeps crying about the representative Republican known as Santander "Go back to the other party".

LOL, parties don't just *become* what the previous party had been closer to being in a matter of years.  Period.

Tom, you no longer need to be in the party of pessimism, despair, and hatred. You can join our wonderful big tent. Didn't you hear Tim Kaine last night? We Democrats have a spot for Republicans who really miss the Party Of Lincoln. Smiley

Bulls**t you have a spot for those Republicans. With all the pandering to the Bernie bros and BLM the Democrats are trending just as far left as Republicans are going far right. You can't have it both ways, there's no tent big enough for Bernie Sanders and RINO Tom.

But there's a tent big enough for Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin, David Duke, and him? GMAFB.

I just love it when I see Bernie supporters bowing down to Hillary Clinton and the DNC. How does one achieve a political revolution by supporting a morally bankrupt party taking its marching orders from Wallstreet precisely? Remember why we don't have universal health care today..... (D) Joe Lieberman, (D) Mary Landrieu, (D) Blanche Lincoln, (D) Ben Nelson, (D) Mark Pryor. That's right, it is not because of Republicans alone, Wallstreet Democrats deserve all the credit in the world for this as does Hillary, the great panderer.

She campaigned on universal health care in 2008. I remember, because it was one of the major reasons I was supportive of her at the time. Well, I certainly cannot be accused of that charge today.

And all of those Senators, save for Nelson, are gone. If the Democratic party ever wants to have a stable Senate majority, it will need to field moderate candidates in right-leaning states.

Whether you want to believe it or not, the Democratic party is changing for the better (at least from the perspective of a liberal like me). We have a ways to go yet, but it's not like the 90s at all anymore. The party didn't move right overnight and it won't move back left overnight, either. Give it some time.

So it was because of 5 Democrats and 40 Republicans...but Democrats are the problem? Riiiight. By the way, Lieberman was not a Democrat.
