I can see that. He sort of seems like a solid ass kicking might do him some good.

He definitely works hard but he's the type who's smart enough to get talked into joining a cult.

Taxes bad. Gun Laws bad. Abortion rights bad.
No exceptions on these issues. While if you take the big issue for Democrats right now, Healthcare, there are a range of ideas being talked about from Single Payer with private insurance banned, to just a public option or an Obamacare expansion.
