LOL! That must be why they've thrown their support behind establishment candidates (and even Republicans!) over actual progressives. First they said it was because establishment dems could raise more money, then the progressive out raised their establishment counterpart... Yet still establishment dems support the less funded Dem alternative..
Alison Hartson raised more than her counterparts in the CA primary, by far, not a peep in mainstream media. What happened to the Democratic party supporting the person who could raise the most?
Turns out, even if you can raise more than your corporate counterpart, the Democratic establishment still won't back you if you support campaign finance reform or healthcare reform or any actual progressive policies, because those policies go against their agenda.
When they say they're only trying to back the strongest Democrat so they can beat the Republican in the general election, they're lying to you. They only want to beat the Republican if they're backing a corporate Democrat in the district. They won't back progressives because they don't support progressive policies.
