She can mouth the words "I'm a progressive" until the cows come home, but she figures maybe more of the inattentive will feel comfortable with her if she invites (compels?) true progressive "friends" to endorse her. Look for more of this charade from other progressive electeds who fear Harman's wrath and/or feel they "owe" her -- she's up front about calling in chits --notwithstanding her trog politics. Sad reality, but it can be overcome with an enthusiastic grass roots effort and some courageous politicians willing to stand up for the better candidate (who happens to be my spouse), perhaps the best that's come along in the 36th ever!budlawmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16571413835875366804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140498942792126715.post-50249866909599611742010-01-14T22:29:59.387-08:002010-01-14T22:29:59.387-08:00Apologies for font issues, the HTML editor is in a...Apologies for font issues, the HTML editor is in a bad mood.
