Rahm “I hate Progressives” Emanuel.

How Emanuel came to his decisions about which candidates to support against Democratic opponents is known only to Emanuel and his staff. Emanuel declined direct comment on this story. But an examination of individual races reveals a pattern of financial and political support for wealthy conservative candidates and an assault on their grassroots-supported opponents who were running on platforms that included a full withdrawal of US forces from Iraq.

Go read the whole disgusting thing.

Bottom line: There are two parties alright, but for some reason, a lot of Republicans including Rahm get away with calling themselves Democrats. I’m waiting for an answer from Nancy and Harry about why that is…

Leadership: a word Lambert would like to see less of in our discourse, while I would like to see more in our party.
