That is the bargain we face with the Democratic Party when they tell us they are our only hope for salvation.
They are telling us that we have to let them get away with anything, because we had better not "hurt their chances." Because we "need" them.
It's fucking abusive.
When we commit ourselves to supporting "our side" no matter what, we are committing to having no recourse against corruption & abuses by the people "on our side". We are committing to sit down & shut up.
How is this democratic? How is that liberty & freedom of choice?
I don't think this "little" thing will have any substantial effect on Crowley's chances. Either he can get his shit together or not.
But still...some part of me is saying "Don't look at it. Don't talk about it," because I HATE the fucking thought of having Governor Tom Tiffany.
So people who are more committed to electoral politics than I am probably feel significantly more pressure, right?

If you think that we need Democrats to win elections to save us, then you will end up making the agreement to let them get away with murder.
"Lesser of two evils," right? Don't "hurt their chances". Don't ask for accountability. Just shut up. They NEED to win. Right?
I mean, what the fuck is this devil's bargain?
