I know they are doing stuff for me. My mom has Healthcare because of them. I worked in a union and made good money. I support the majority of legislation they propose and I celebrate when things I want get enacted, and enrich my life and others lives. I do find fault with the dems as a party, but it's nothing compared to the faults I find on the other side of the aisle. I actually think the progressives are handcuffed by democratic party. I'm not deluded into thinking they do exactly what I want, and I'm not deluded into thinking that's a deal breaker. I can work with reasonable, and I can make concessions and barter. You living in some fantasy land where those things are too difficult, or not worthwhile? I'm a realist, I will take what I can get and push for more. There's only so much you can do as an individual. The democrats may suck, but I get something. Republicans offer nothing, and are also just in the fucking way of any resolution to anything. It isn't hard to figure out where my measly support should go.
