Reply #2: There are None So Blind . . .

I've gotten into lengthy, pointless arguments with ultra-liberal Dem's in my Congressional District -- California 36 -- where Jane Harman is facing a serious challenge from Marcy Winograd, a died-in-the-wool anti-war liberal.

Winograd's people just refuse to listen to the argument that Harman holds a Democratic seat in a pale blue district just south of LAX airport. I keep asking -- if they want to take back the House, why not send money to the Dem in Texas 22, who has a chance for a turnover from Tom De-effing-Lay, rather that trying to take down a sitting Dem whose position is too cozy with the Defense Establishment for them.

Ideological purity over pragmatism. Sounds like Nader 2000, eh? And look what that got us.*
