House Candidates To Spend Over $1 Billion On Elections

Tuesday, October 26, 2010


Not all 60 members of the Democratic Caucus are Democrats, but they enjoy perks that come with being in the majority in the Senate (committee assignments, for example, and committee/­subcommitt­ee chairs) because they agree to certain conditions.



Bush-Chene­y-Republic­ans, have no problem keeping their caucus members in line, exacting discipline and punishment on those who choose to go against the "shared objectives" of the whole of the Republican Party.



Democrats know this, too, and exact discipline and punishment when it's something that the DLC wants and perceives it needs. For example, when Democrats needed unemployment benefits to continue because the masses were becoming 'critical', Harry Reid had no problem calling Jim Bunning's bluff, forcing him to filibuster, and the GOP caved.



When the DLC-controlled Democrats in Congress are motivated to do the will of the People, they get it done.



They're not motivated, and the reason they're not is because of complacent, forgiving, excuse-making supporters, who either don't know any better or are conflict-phobic or are political operatives spreading disinformation.
