Progressive candidates and support them first. That said, I do work to keep Democrats in office because I may influence them if I gather enough voices and point them in the right direction. I have zero chance of achieving desired reformations/goals with a Republican in office. We can't achieve our ends with low to no power. Yes, the odds aren't high that we will with a Blue Dog and it's >certain< we won't with a Republican.

On an unrelated note, I really don't believe BecKKK could complete a broadcast if he was prohibited from using the words Socialist or Communist.
