Reply #48: No, excuse me. Stop trying to redefine your point now that it's shown to be a total lie.

You argued that Feingold was losing because he's too liberal and hasn't appeared enough with Obama, whereas other candidates (Barrett) who have done so are "doing better" in the polls.

Since this proposition has been shown to be total bunk, there's no need to elaborate on it further. You may argue that Feingold is making a strategic mistake, but don't try to backpedal now on your original claim that Feingold in general is too liberal and that he was suffering more than other Democrats because of it. ("Far left," etc.)

Moreover, your claim that independents are overwhelmingly moderate lacks support. I would think especially now that the "far left" as you put it is apparently not welcome in this party, that is absolutely false.

Again, no one elected you the arbiter of who is and isn't a Democrat just because you're on the "centrist" (closet conservative) team. Get over yourself, and stop alienating people who are ON YOUR SIDE.
