    thanks for the good convo. ignoring any other problems (including palestine being much more than just “single issue”)

    He was still in the running. I think the broader concern was his impact on down-ballot races.

    given the importance of controlling as many branches as possible to make the vitally important needed changes… isnt that innately disqualifying?

      No, not to a more traditionally-minded dem. You could say that’s a mistaken thought, that’s my opinion personally. But it reminds me of a democratic leader reportedly saying he was resigning himself to a Trump presidency. It’s common among dems to play with “honor” so much they lose, the much-debated “they go low, we go high” philosophy.
