He ran as a Democrat!

And that is what I said. If one wants to participate in the Democratic primaries they must be a Democrat.

Christ almighty - lol!

The progressives backed Bernie because he is a progressive.

You don't seem to like progressives, so you keep harping on his being an independent.

We didn't care about that as long as he ran as a Democrat, because being a progressive is the most important thing to us, "because" it is his ideas we were interested in.

We supported him based on ideology.

You don't like that and that is fine, but you need to face the fact progressives are now the majority in the Democratic party and we increase in number every day as the kids and women are mostly progressive.

And this just in progressive Cori Bush just defeated 10 term lacy Clay in Missouri.

That seat has been held by the Clay family for 50 years.

All three, Engle, Crowly and Clay were about 10 term high ranking Democrats backed by Pelosi and the Democratic establishment!

And all three were crushed by progressives.
