The Democratic Party is supposed to be the major political party of progressives. And yet, Democratic party leaders and congressmen continue to be stifled by their own limits. Why not let Republicans continue to be the party of corruption while the Democrats stay pure to their morals? If we’re going to be the party of such movements as #MeToo and #TimesUp, LGBT rights, reform on Wall Street and clean energy, we can’t have people within the party who at one point in the careers were against those very things.
