Democrats on the Run

Brief edit comments: " will except nothing less" will accept nothing less
"still try at lest to pretend" still try at least to pretend

The Ds are starting to remind me of the chicken running on spinal cord reflex circuits; R & P bet the farm on failure, and got sandbagged by reality. They are no longer effectively running their caucuses. It seems to be heading to the point where D-reps/sens will be caught between accepting one of two Kisses of Death. One: permitting warfunding and being savaged by MoveOn et al.; Two: continuing to endorse the R & P inanities and alienating the swing votes which decide the vast majority of outcomes.

Looks good on them.
