Tuesday

an ardent critic of Schumer because of the surrender, but I don't recommend this public display (even if it's allowed). All it will do is feed the "Dems in Disarray" that the media is just chomping at the bit to replay. Rather, why not have credible candidates announce that they will be primary-ing every Dem who voted for this travesty (those who have the spine to run again), flanked by those leaders who stood by this fight despite the betrayal. Sends the same message with much more powerful framing.
