    Sure sure, it’s a well known maxim that politics that works in New York works across the nation.

    Not that we shouldn’t have progressive candidates and boot out corporate chuckleheads, because we absolutely should - just that a progressive candidate in Kansas or Florida or North Dakota has a different set of challenges.

    I’m saying don’t buy too much into the ‘Democrats in disarray’ narrative the Ellison-Murdoch news machine would love you to buy.

    Centrist Democrats are intentionally being obtuse about this because they work for the same billionaires the Republicans work for.

    I think when someone doesn’t match their claimed ideology, they should be called Zombie Democrats.

    … and there’s plenty of Zombie Conservatives too.
