Do the Democrats in Congress know the difference between Democrats and Republicans?
Or do they think it is one big old Party and there is no difference that cannot be compromised? Maybe their critics are correct when they say there isn't a dime's worth difference in them?? Does it not matter if it is a Democratic or a Republican issue? It's really about America. Our Party is never 100% right and the Republican Party is never 100% wrong? Is that what they believe?

2. There will be no difference until
there are publicly funded elections.

Elected officials are whores and when you pay a whore you expect to be serviced.

5. A lot of Americans don't know the difference.
I know a lot of people who can't tell you the difference between Dems and pugs. As far as Congress goes, I think that the blue dogs have the most trouble seeing the difference. The Republicans and progressive Democrats know who they are.
