Moderate Dems … it's not infighting, it's a purge.

Some media reports a split in the Dem party and infighting. A more accurate portrayal is the Far Left will replace most of the 8 who voted to end the shutdown with "leaders who will fight no matter what." Replacing moderate Dems with more Socialist-Dems in Blue States will not be hard.
Moderate Dems are on their way out. The 20 -35 year olds with debt, little chance to purchase a home, a useless college degree and unaffordable healthcare cost under the Affordable Care Act will be energized by the new Left.
The Republican Senate should eliminate the filibuster now (while there is no specific bill on the agenda). Then, vote in the policies they want before Congress leans even more left.
Or, you can wait for the Far Left to have 41 solid votes … or more.

That’s how the left operates. I know a congressman from Illinois - leftist as hell except he was pro-life. The primaries him and starved his campaign of funds and purged him from their ranks.

There arent any moderate Democrats, except for maybe John Fetterman. The battle we are seeing is:
The Old Guard Political Establishment
vs.
The new breed of more radical Dems. Mostly young, butt Bernie Sanders fits in
with this group, and Pocahontas has a foot in each camp. She's really more old guard, though.

Hopefully though, they will decide to run communists in states like New Hampshire, in place of current hard left leaning purple state senators they were fortunate to get elected.

This is why I also say the elections the other night were a good thing for us in the overall picture... It further evidenced the radical shift to the left by Democrats and the party's purge of moderates and center-left policy in favor of far-left extremists and doubling down on fringe, extreme 80/20 policy that is WAY out of touch with normal Americans.

Just like they got rid of yellow dog Democrats.

Not just the left. All sides do this. Anyone who disagrees is fooling themselves.

I doubt anyone can touch the RINOs for spending campaign donations against the donor's wishes/best interest.

You are sadly correct. Add in the DSA, BCC, Squad, and we are frickt.
Mark Halperin is my go to on this stuff. Will have to go check him out.

I have a friend who has a wife like this - very liberal yet virulently pro-life. Strange creature indeed.

You’d expect Cassidy to be broke if that were true, but here we are with his campaign sitting on more money than ever before allegedly.

Uh no
Keep filibuster
Dems will swing to the center
Far left is unsustainable
Mamdani will demonstrate the folly of the far left by turning NYC into London…..

He’s a great guy. Ever been in a strange location with him? I think it is eye opening what he can draw out about a place based on how well their grocery store is stocked.

This is true, they killed off the blue dogs long ago.
Every Democratic senator is for abortions.
Every Democratic senator is for universal Healthcare.
Its basically Fetterman.
Then Neocon beltsnakes
Warner, the New Hampshire women, Kaine, Kelley etc...
Then your liberals like Schumer who give the progressives everything they can.
But they aren't true believers and the progressives know that.

Yeah, they even kicked Joseph Leiberman out of the party..I never met the guy and don't know for sure, but my honest perception of Joe Leiberman was that he was one of the most genuinely nice guys in politics One of relatively few who were.
