As Rush said, Blue Dog Dem, Pro Life Dem, it doesn’t matter. THEY’RE STILL A DEMOCRAT” (paraphrased)
Ditto. Note most of the post Obamacare violence was directed at blue dogs. Atleast the liberal Dems were upfront with their viewpoints, so the voters know what they will get. The blue dogs ran on the theme that they were not liberal, they were independent and will not succumb to pressures from ultra liberal Dems. Obamacare vote proved them to be otherwise. Finally, the politicians in Wash DC do not get it. Blue collar voters are sick of being lied to and screwed by politicians who say they are for the working man and Main Street Americans and do otherwise during crunch time. Starting from NAFTA, WTO, Amnesty for Illegals, Bailout for Banks and now Obamacare, Main Street voters had it with Wash DC and more with local lying Congressmen. This is going to lead to inevitable violence, because on each of the subject laws, the majority of American opposed to it while their reps ignored their desires. In a prosperous economy, disgruntle voters can cut some slack, but with high unemployment, broken pension funds and financial uncertainty, patience has run out and anger has risened. This time it will be different. Voters will not take the crap anymore.
