I really miss having Harkin around as a senator, I wonder how different things might be if his presidential bid in 1992 has gone better.

gradenko_2000 posted:* Lyndon LaRouche supports an approach to healthcare wherein Federal grants create a minimum standard of free healthcare across public hospitals, as outlined in the Hill-Burton Act. I had difficulty parsing this candidate, his ideas seemed a bit off. lol makes sense that he wouldn't support something like the NHS which the queen has, tho

i'm glad pelosi has shown up to prove just how idiotic the lesser of two evils option is by voting for bad dems like pelosi to retain power, you help make sure 1000s of good dems lose their seats instead. the bad dems will happily and gladly sacrifice good dems as long as they keep getting megadonor funbux. governing is not a concern for them it's the trolley problem, where you could save tons of good dems by letting pelosi and her scum get wiped out, but centrists are rushing at you saying "DON'T YOU PULL THAT LEVER YOU'LL BE A MEGAMURDERER!!!"

Also I actually do not know what the thread position is on abortion litmus tests because it really seems to do a 180 based entirely on where the DNC stands that given week.

not supporting full abortion rights is just a losing issue. no one from the anti-abortion side is going to be swayed by a democrat saying they're against abortion. you just lose people who would otherwise support you and gain nothing

People can held any personal views they want as long as they don't conflict with their commitment to safeguard the freedoms of others. Mello was politically pro-choice, but privately against abortions in a way that didn't affect his constituents.
