Steve Schmidt didn’t convert soon enough. The only good democrats you can trust were democrats by the age of 18. Actually, their parents might have been republicans or at least said something that a republican might have said. So, that's not good enough. But their parents (ie. grandparents) might have said something that a republican might have said. Of course, if you like that, then there’s a lot more where that came from. Are you a good enough democrat? Did you or your ancestors become progressive enough soon enough?
And unless you were the most progressive democrat ever, then you were part of the problem. But this can't surprise me because from the North (a previous user on Daily Kos who dominated the recommended list) we learned that Elizabeth Warren wasn't trustworthy because she was a republican in the 80s.
What’s progressive enough? Who defines that? Who’s progressive enough to be trusted now?
Democracy is on the line.
