Is DU now in lockstep with McCain, Ayotte, and Graham and united against Susan Rice?

38. You have no clue about me

My stances on most issues are probably to the left of you. I am a realist, though. Rhetoric is the art of the ridiculous. Politics is the art of the possible. I understand that there is no way in hell I will ever get everything I want implemented. One must compromise in order to advance one's agenda.

Only the politically naive or the fringe of the fringe fail to see this reality and demand ideological purity. Those elements have all but destroyed the GOP. Those elements very nearly destroyed the Democratic Party in the late 70's and early 80's.

And do not get me wrong. There are certain areas where I will accept no compromise. Amongst these are the eligibility age for Medicare and the retirement age for social Security. IMO, altering these two things would be to break the compact of the Democratic coalition. If elected Democrats are so foolish as to do something like this, they will have destroyed themselves.
