Oh, you also said:

Barney Frank warns Democrats to stay away from that which is "beyond what's politically acceptable."

#75 Lamp asks, "Why bring up fmr Rep Barney Frank's opinion now?"

Perhaps we can all learn from experience/expertise/historical acknowledgement ... ?

Nope.

Not saying that at all, you fool.

Too insignificant. :-)

Oh, you also said:

#58 In a light of phenomenal brightness, Lamplighter says, "Deciding the difference between "political reality" and "political poison" depends upon the voters the Democrats are addressing."

Thank you.

Thank you.

The audience for winning votes consists of the candidate's constituents.

Again, The audience for winning votes consists of the candidate's constituents.

Respond to these, Clown.

Otherwise, copy/paste is my friend.

...what does Mr Frank mean when he says, progressives in his party have "embraced an agenda that goes beyond what's politically acceptable."
Get back to me when you understand ...
The Overton Window and,
Powell Memorandum to the United States Chamber of Commerce
Understand those, Clown, and you will understand what Barney Frank was saying when he said "progressives in his party have "embraced an agenda that goes beyond what's politically acceptable."
Gosh.
beyond what's politically acceptable = it turns voters off.
Is that what you're advocating, Clown?
Shoving down the throats of American voters an agenda that goes beyond what's politically acceptable
Now that's a winning argument all across America. Right? /s

#35 You made an entire post without bothering to read what I wrote about what Mr. Frank means (belief not necessary:

#12 Clown actually tries to twist Barney Frank's words into something they're not (and shame on you, Ms. Laura, for failing to recognize this)...
When Barney Frank said "For a lot of my colleagues, the argument has been, well, we don't support defund the police or open borders, and we don't say we do,'" Frank said. "But my point is, no, it's not enough ... to be silent. We have to explicitly repudiate it."
Nothing in there about the DNC.
Therefore, that has absolutely nothing to do with "He's advocating for progressives to vote for the Democratic nominee available instead of the candidate the DNC shut out..."

#25 In a sense of impending humiliation, Clown actually admits to being illiterate.

#22 As expected...

Your sense of political insight is enough for a person to give up all hope for the Democratic Party and any hope for progressive progress.

It has absolutely nothing to do with A_Friend's opinion on open borders, closed borders, wall/no wall.

If you had any sense of political insight you would understand that these three (3) basic political facts in America in 2026:

1. America is a two-party political system - the Democratic Party and the Republican Party


2. American politics is a zero-sum game: one side loses when the other side wins


3. Americans of voting age have different motivations for voting how they do - "All politics is local" as Tip O'Neil said. You force down the throats of Americans of voting age in a particular area can be political gold ... or political poison

#20 You just said, Clown, that you "...actually read the article and understood what Barney Frank said..."

Oh, you also said:

#17 Just say you haven't a clue and save us both the time of reading your nonsense, Clown.

After claiming Barney Frank meant something he didn't really mean (in your #11, seconded (stupidly) by Ms. Laura)...

#18 Why are you defending a policy that turns off many Americans (open borders), Clown?

#14 Gosh. After claiming Barney Frank meant something he didn't really mean (in Clown's #11, seconded (stupidly) by Ms. Laura)...

"...what does Mr Frank mean when he says, progressives in his party have "embraced an agenda that goes beyond what's politically acceptable."

Another future face of the Democratic Party ...

Will you dare watch this... until the end?
