In These Times

Is it really necessary, or practical, for the "Democrats" to speak with one voice? Repubicans tend to march in lockstep; Democrats are just kinda walking together, but can gather and exert political force when necessary. The Senate votes yesterday are a good example. Noted that you and many others of the "traditional left" identify yourselves first as "progressive", then state a party affiliation. I wouldn't castigate the party for it's lack of cohesion. Better to celebrate the wide range of opinion that produces unanimity based on reasoned debate. No locksteppers there.
