I'm starting to think that repeatedly grooming NYC machine pols to be the next generation of Democratic congressional leadership was one of the great mistakes of the post-Citizens United era. Their loyalties are misplaced, their instincts unhelpful, & above all they are visibly, painfully soft

Who's a stupid? This quisling is. Or a useful idiot. A lickspittle. Thanks for Trump, "centrist."
