16. Feingold fights alone: NO "bench clearing brawl," just one man standing.
"It's time to push, and fight and win, and we can let them know it.
In fact, we might be the only ones who can."


Feingold stood tall, he told the truth, he laid the foundation.

While he took on the entirety of the other team, his team mates sat it
out on the bench.

In baseball, you know what happens to a player or players who sit out a
"bench clearing brawl?" They get booed and traded.

The excuse of the war for not supporting Feingold is no better than the
excuse of the Democrats for not filibustering Alito...THERE IS NO EXCUSE!

It really doesn't matter why many on our team "sat this one out" on the bench.
All that matters is that they did so.

It's time for a new team, new captains, new strategy, and, a new front office.

I say, put Dean in sole charge of DNC and tell him to "down size" and "re-staff"

Put Feingold in as majority leader and lets get cooking. Anyone who sits on the
bench next time gets a good scolding from the coach

NEW LEADERS FOR A NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY
