Hartmann: "You're either a progressive Party or you're not"

Thom: Given what you wrote, progressives in the Party, and those running for a place in it, must use your very words and similar rhetoric against the corporatists therein. Call them traitors to freedom and economic royalists. Call out their corrupt triangulation and big-tent you're either with us or against us, blue no matter who BS. As you say:

"You’re either a progressive party or you’re not: you can’t be both, and when you try to straddle that fence you will lose elections more often than not."
