| In A Way... This Fight Over Tax Cuts Is A Great Moment For DU... |
|
It reminds us of what we as Democrats, stand for: tax fairness, the unemployed, the middle-class, and the disadvantaged to name a few.
It reminds us that Democrats are definitely NOT monolithic in their approach to solving said problems.
And with this current fight, it reminds us that we are DEMOCRATIC Underground, and NOT Obama Underground.

| 4. All the bitter battles here prepared us for this. |
|
A Democratic rank-and-file revolt against Obama's compromises with Republicans come as no surprise to attentive DUers.
My thought: remember, Obama told us to MAKE HIM do the right thing!

| 6. Another way I look at it - it is easy to come together for 8 years of being against someone.... |
|
it takes time and patience and a bit of chaos to deal with what each of us are actually for. It is a big tent, afterall. Certainly quite the roller coaster ride as well!

| 11. ironically, it was an Independent who spoke for us. |

Only two Dems were there to lend support.
That's a sad statement.
