There's over 200 comments on a diary that's been up since about 2 p.m. on the front page of DailyKos discussing the national issues around Debbie Wasserman Schultz's refusal to help our Democratic candidates for Congress in South Florida. Pretty heated stuff. My post here from Sunday also has a dozen comments (well, some from me, too), so I'd say we're striking a nerve with this topic.
My issue with this congressional behavior, which no doubt has a long history and some utility, is that this is a special election. The rules are different now, but Wasserman Schultz isn't adapting -- even though she is allied with the presidential candidate who trumpets how happy she is to be in a race between a woman and an African-American. Historic stuff!
The special thing, I think, is that this could be the year of an unprecedented landslide for Democrats. But we won't get it if we're not united and hard-working. Our two Democrats in the House aren't getting it and are not uniting. Have they not noticed the facts in my recent post (scroll down a few days) showing Democrats nationally at 52 percent and the Republicans at 35 percent? That's a 17-point margin. And growing. Why do they want to remain friends with such losers?
