To the rhetoric, "No, the solution is to elect more progressives/liberals", I say, "Nice idea, but that's not possible with the DLC working with Republicans against it".
Obama & the DLC have worked their butts off to PREVENT more progressives/liberals from getting elected. Obama & the DLC have put the power of the WhiteHouse, the DNC, & the Democratic congressional committees behind BlueDogs, Republicans & Independents over progressives/liberals & real Democrats:
BlueDog BlancheLincoln over progressive Democrat Lt. GovernorBillHalter.
Republican-turned-Independent ArlenSpecter over progressive DemocratJoe Sestak.
Republican-turned-Independent Lincoln Chaffee over Democrat FrankCaprio (which, in turn, is an effective endorsement of the Republican JohnLoughlin over Democrat DavidCicilline for the congressional seat Democrat PatrickKennedy is retiring from, and all of the other seats up for grab in RhodeIsland).
Republican-turned-Independent CharlieCrist over liberal Democrat KendrickMeek.
