This is the same thing republicans blast Susan Collins for. She is THE ONLY republican senator whose state voted for Kamala.

I saw a scattergram of her voting, she votes to the left of most republican senators....and to the right of all democrat senators. She is threading that proverbial needle to stay in office. If she loses we will get a senator that makes Bernie Sanders look like Ronald Reagan.

Now Murkowski that witch is a different story.....

Will these Democrats who broke rank with their party be considered brave and principled as if they were Republicans doing the same?

What’s the distinction?

Both are purity tests.

a rebuke from the party hierarchy vs support in a campaign

I mean, seems like support for someone else because of a policy difference is in line with "free thinking"

Political retribution is not enough in Dim politics. Just ask Mellisa Hortman.

I mean, I’ll admit that it’s a really thin line, and that your question was fair, but it does seem like these “purity tests” are a little more pernicious and frequent from the Democratic Party

“I disagree with your vote (or votes), so I am going to campaign against you/support your opponent “

Is a little different than-

“ You did not follow your marching orders, so we will give you a public rebuke”

This is not republican vs democrat, it's good vs evil. Choose wisely.

This tells you everything about the current Dumocrat leadership....they expect the flock to follow the party line to the minute detail rather than consider what their voters might want!

Seems like that's a good way to get replaced as Minority Leader. He might be like the 5th or so dumbest on that side - you can easily name the 4 dumbest (the guy from Guam).
