Let's compare two sets of headlines. One set from September, at the end of the 2022 primaries...
...and one set from mid-November, at the end of the 2022 general election.
I'll be sticking with the "socialist" label after reading this study.
That tidal wave of Big Money donors swept away any potential progressive gains in North Carolina yesterday, but Oregon wasn't buying what they were selling.
This headline is a perfect representative of democratic establishment spin.
We are approaching another election disaster for the Democrats, so establishment Democrats are already shifting into scapegoating the slightly less corrupt, non-corporate wing of the party - progressives.
Lesson learned: Progressives in Congress have no red lines.
After having most of the good stuff stripped from the budget, the progressives are the ones trying hardest to pass it.
I like how this headline is worded. Because is there anyone is America today that doesn't expect the progressives to fold like an accordion?
I cannot recall a single time in my lifetime that progressives didn't cave when the slightest bit of pressure was applied. Could this be the first time progressives actually show some backbone?
If you watch MSNBC you probably believe that if it wasn't for some local politician in Seattle whispering the word "socialist" within earshot of a microphone, then right-wing Democrats in Minnesota and Florida would have won their elections.
