    No. Come on. Chuck was there when Obama squandered a majority. You can’t wait until you know you’ll win to even try. Leadership means making the case for doing what’s right, not collecting a paycheck until conditions get so bad the voters demand action. Consevatives sure as shit don’t wait until they have a majority to advance their agenda.

    Of course, that’s the problem. Chuck is a corporate-owned centrist hired to be opposition in name only. He’s not the solution to any problem we face.
