Who knew that DSCC stood for, "Democratic Senators' Country Club"?
I invite you to pledge to NOT donate money or time to the DSCC, DCCC or ANY candidate who does not unequivocally state that they will support the winner of the Democratic primary in Connecticut. All the way from senators down to your local candidate for dogcatcher.
Well, well, we are back to the days of smoke-filled rooms (without the smoke). The party bosses are picking the candidate, while the actual vote is a mere technicality.
I'm so disgusted with the Democratic party. For a while, I thought their impotence was just a lack of framing and focus. Now I realize that Congress is just a racket. Left, right, it doesn't matter - as long as you are in the club. Oh, be sure to cast a few symbolic votes to keep the low-dollar donors happy, but definitely make sure you give the big-dollar donors everything they want. The gravy train keeps on rolling. Your worst fear is that you might have to give back the keys to the lobbyists' lockers at Morton's.
They do not understand that their loyalties must lie with the Constitution and the American people, and that both are under attack by the right wing majority. However, it seems their loyalties are to themselves and their country club buddies.
Thus, I invite you to pledge to not support the DSCC, DCCC or ANY candidate who will not state their support for the winner of the Democratic primary in Connecticut. If you wish, you may also say how much you have given to Democratic causes. I've given about $1000 since 2003 to various Democratic candidates.
I know that it is harsh to suggest not supporting ANY Democrat at all until they make their position clear, but the issue is democracy and democracy is under attack. If we want democracy subverted, the Republicans are perfectly capable of that.
Call your local candidate! Post the results here:
