Yesterday I got a call from our state"s

Senatorial Democrats asking me support our "so called"
democratic Senator for 2016.

I suppose that I was pretty rude, because I told the guy
that if Bennet voted for the Corker bill and if he supports
the TPP, there was no chance for me to even vote for
him.

I thought that perhaps the message would get through,
or is that in itself an illusion?
Colorado could be again a purple state, but I don't see
what difference it would even make anymore.

And someone actually said that this is what should happen. "Nothing to see here. Move along"

I don't even know how to respond to that. On a democratic site.

Sigh.

you see, this seems to be a purely Democratic Party site,
not necessarily a place for democrats.
Palast presents the truth, and so does Bernie, but
that appears to be irrelevant for many.
