*** I Apologise***
by LaFeminista

Wed Jan 20, 2010 at 11:20:33 AM PST

........as a progressive liberal I am prepared to accept all the blame for yesterday.

I should never have asked for what I wanted let alone pushed and fought for it.

I should have listened to the 'moderate' centre and just accepted the situation as it was and not forced Lieberman, Landrieu, Nelson, Baucus, Stupak etc into difficulty.

They could have cut a decent HCR Bill with President Snowe in no time at all.

34. No need to apologize.
We've all learned a few things, importantly that we'll have to address so-called Dems differently than in the past. As Dr. Dean and Rep. Grayson know, start at the 'bottom,' grass roots, and STAY with them all there; get them OUR money, support and votes.

even though she was not a fighter, when what we need are strong Liberal fighters, to Make Change Happen! Mr. Capuano could prove electable by acclimation if he stirs some positive action in the House.
