    Now it’s time for the “vote blue no matter who” crowd to put up or shut up. So far, party loyalty doesn’t seem very important to a lot of the establishment.

      That’s because they only support “democracy” when it is ruled by a corporate oligarchy. Neolibs will not abandon neoliberalism when it becomes unpopular, they will abandon the illusion of democracy; just like conservatives did.

        Meh. We’ll see what happens when it threatens their office. A lot of them have already started changing their rhetoric.
