Reply #840: Thanks for that. I can't count the number of times I've been called

a "DLCer." I finally went to the DLC site to see what the heck they were talking about. All I found there were some old articles that were out of date. So, I still have no idea what is meant.

What I am is someone who learned a long time ago that the long view was the only view that made sense, and that Republicans move things in the wrong direction...every time. So, that long view, along with progress made in many areas when Democrats held power, means that I support electing Democrats to office whenever it's possible. That's my entire mission. Nothing else.

I will not, and cannot, work against that mission. I never will. Progress is a slow thing in this country. The long view is the only rational view.
