Reply #63: Agreeing on SOME issues isn't courting them. [View All]

As I said, climate change is one issue that I think most human beings have in common when they push partisanship aside.

I can't speak for the rest of humanity, but I don't expect to agree with all people on every issue. Jeez, there are monster disagreements right here on DU. We should seek to find that which binds us together as a country and reach out on those issues. This purism BS doesn't work within the party nor in an effort to reach out to uncommitted or disgruntled voters that might be persuaded without us breaking a sweat to vote Democratic. I trust I don't need to point out the benefits of that.

This notion of an exclusive club left of center is absurd. IMO we need to seek out a common denominator that creates a cohesive, effective voting block. That's what wins elections and that is the objective of the game and the task at hand.
