Is voting for down ballot dems still an implicit endorsement of their fuckery? It’s a laugh that we’ll have any real progressives on the ballot in Texas, but I figured it might be worth a bit of legislative entanglement.
Two hours ago I was going to say: I basically have a policy platform test, and if they pass it and I believe they're credible, I'll vote for them.

But hell if I even know that an insurrection within the Party is possible. Everything's up in the air right now.

There's no salvaging the Democratic Party, we basically have to build an actual left party up from the ground.

And then Corbyn ate poo poo and the Tories surged to a huge victory. Maybe don't look to Corbyn as the example to emulate for strengthening the left in this country.

Every candidate for labour leader is a self-described socialist at the very least, and all at least have a political history that backs that up

Corbyn lost but he did more to push his party to the left than any American politician has in the last 60 years.

it's gone enough to the left that the right has to play nice to trick people into voting for them, at least, and it's a basis for future mobilisation

May was never called a "humiliatingly bad candidate" until after the election. 2017 is constantly framed like this retroactively, usually with a willful misunderstanding of how parliaments work.

If you think May was a good candidate, I have several bridges you might be interested in buying. Everyone in the Conservative party hated her and she was the least charismatic UK Prime Minister since before 1980 at least. I don't understand why the left can't admit that Corbyn, however attractive his policies were, was just a bad politician.
