The fact that even in heavily Democratic states like Maryland, Massachusetts, and Vermont moderate Republican governors whose basic agenda is “just don’t do anything” can’t be effectively challenged from the left is just a big red flag for progressive politics in practice. — PolitiTweet.org

@ashleyfeinberg @bendreyfuss It a little bit about a purported (though obviously fake in reality) “political revolution” that was supposedly going to make the policies possible. If people didn’t believe in that (and they shouldn’t have!) there was never any reason to get quite so worked up. — PolitiTweet.org
