16. The problem is him working with Blue Dog and Corporatist Democrats.

Yes, he's a corporatist, too, but even if his heart is in the right place on this one issue where he's decided to put people first, he still has to confront DemoCRAPS who want to essentially CRAP on the people to protect their campaign contributions.

And a point that on a few people are making is that these DemoCRAPS who are in leadership positions represent only a small segment of the population. They come from very small states with very small voting populations. So essentially we are allowing a very small minority dictate the whims of the great, vast majority. That's the saddest aspect of this debate...
