Not LGBTQIA?
Doesn't despise America/*Jews as much as Keith Ellison?

*Jews that support Israel, not modern Progressive Jews who are embarrassed or ashamed of Israel.

Sanders wing wanted an outsider progressive. Perez is progressive but has been in Washington a long time. The outcome seemed pretty uncontroversial .

Hasn't he been in DC about the same amount of time as Ellison?

No idea. It doesn't seem like this is usually big news. Only race I remember was the Dean one.

I know you don't have a dog in this fight, it just seems like progressives would prefer a smaller tent.

Yeah, I listened to part of an interview with a prominent Sanders person who badly wants to take an uncompromising approach. Seems like a bad idea when you're the minority party.

It is because he presents as a straight white male.

to me, it seems like progressive righteousness: bernie loss caused pissed-offedness. bernies surrogate loses causes more pissed-offedness.

yeah, a progressive tent holds fewer, same as a tea-party tent. in today's world, moderates can go fuck themselves

It seems like the moderates keep winning on both sides. Clinton beat Sanders, Schumer because Senate Minority Leader, and Perez beat Ellison. On the Republican side, on a state by state basis, Republicans running for Congress tended to win their elections by bigger margins than Trump did. Most of them pulled their endorsements back prior to the election too.

Seems like bad news for people on both sides who don't want business as usual.

I am deeply disappointed the Left voted in Perez. Ellison would have been the last nail in the Socialist Coffin.

But props where they are due, Perez was a better choice. But he has a big job ahead. My prediction is he doesn't last much longer than midterms.

He'd definitely have been the Pyrrhic Victory for the progs
