Let me get this straight.

The Dems that voted FOR Gorsuch are going to use that to help them keep their seats, right? That means more Dem votes in places that "won't" elect a Dem, yes? Voters are going to realize that they stood by Trump and the pukes and reward them for being bipartisany or somesuch? I hope selling souls is lucrative these days, since there are three up for grabs. Feel free and tell me I just want to elect pukes in place of Dems, if it makes you feel better. Somehow, these Dems are able to sleep at night by AFFIRMING Gorsuch. Unreal.

1. It's one less attack from 'the right.'

Do we support the Democrats we have, or replace these centrists in Republican country with progressive liberals - and make 51 an even bigger longshot?

Manchin is running in a state where a large number of voters preferred an incarcerated felon in Texas over President Obama!

All of them voted against the nuclear option! After that, how they voted was irrelevant.

2. Not every state is capable of electing Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders nt

3. So, which is more important?

One less attack from the right, or support from the left? I think the support from the left outweighs the attack from the right. We always seem to kneel before the right's attacks, playing endless defense when the bolstering of our left flank is left to flounder. Why?

4. Why they must be primaried.
