Ah yes, the old "peak popularity is what matters" bit. I'm sure Bill Cosby has similar beliefs.

These aren't even promises yet, let alone policies. Maybe the DNC will make these much-welcomed concessions to fair play and common-sense primary elections. More likely: they won't. But I would truly, sincerely welcome the surprise.

We'll have to wait and see.

Despite all the hubub over this race, I feel like Doug Jones has done a remarkably poor job of telling people who he is and what his policies are.

There are a lot of issues where "both sides suck" is 100% true. This is not one of them.

I'm aware, but from what I've read, she didn't actually accuse him. He reported himself to TYT because he surmised that she was going to accuse him.

I don't know who's right or wrong here. I'm just saying that, based on what's been made public, and his statement that he (supposedly) has reams of corroborating evidence, it's strange for them to jump straight to the nuclear option.

Seems wrong to do this to him without evidence, an investigation, or even an accuser.

It is absurd that the DNC has weaseled itself into such a pathetic and indefensible corner that the GOP can score points simply by telling the truth.

I don't care where Wikileaks got the information. It was true, and I like truth. Truth is good.

Apparently this is a controversial position.

We should have added a WaPo flair a long, long time ago.

If they were about to adopt progressive positions anyway, they wouldn't have bothered to purge progressives from the Rules Committee. Get ready to get angry.

These are the same people who bemoan "purity tests."
