MODERATORS
No, you have no argument (and seem to be more than a bit of a twat). A Lisa Murkowski couldn't happen in the DNC because the party would crush them in the general if they ran as an independent after the party turned against them.
Lol? What are you even talking about?
Republicans all vote in unison with each other. They all vote the way the party tells them to. There is no dissent in the GOP...only what the party elites want.
A Lisa Murkowski couldn't happen in the DNC because the VOTERS would never accept having the party's candidate shoved down their throats like that. If they had rejected her in the primary, there's no way they would have accepted her in the general.
But not Republicans. Republicans do what the party tells them to, without question. They follow whatever commands the party gives them, because that's what they've been programmed to do.
