26. So someone who is no longer in Congress should roll up in a ball and hide in the corner?

Rather judgmental aren't you? "No self respecting Progressive Democrat would...."

Here we go again, WHERE DO YOU GET THE IDEA THAT I "DISLIKE" WARREN or any of the rest of that stuff you wrote. Did I say any of that or it this once again your bizarre projection and deflection?

You've done this before, to me and others. I say something that you don't agree with so immediately "I dislike Warren" and "agree with the third way founders"?

To put this into your perspective, if I dislike Warren, why would I have gone to an expensive ($185/person) dinner a few weeks ago where the keynote speaker was SENATOR ELIZABETH WARREN!

So, Frank goes to an event and he agrees with their ideals. I go to an event that Warren spoke at and I dislike her.

Get your projections and odd assumptions straight - at least be consistent, please!
