Progressives generally reject the crass dumbed down politics of division usually pedaled by Repukes.
So why are so many on this board supporting the very same philosophy/tactics/strategy coming from a Democrat?

Robocalls meant to disenfranchise minoroties?
Dissemination of Right wing talking points by a campaign?
Cheap tax gift trinkets in exchange for votes?

Has winning at all costs replaced trying to strive towards a higher ideal?

Would Kennedy or Carter or King or Gore have resorted to these cheap tactics?

If the cost of winning is becoming what we despise most then that cost is too high, at least for most of the progressives I know.
