Democrats need to move back to the political centre to win, says US politics expert Steven Okun.

I think the rats in the dresses in the middle photo were deciding to conspire together to advance the Dem agenda (as the other animals known as RINOs do). 🦏

That picture scene led to a compromise at America’s expense on a bill. Can’t remember which one.

Correction: One RINO had a dress, the Dem conspirator had pants on.

I think it had to do with Kavanaugh’s Senate confirmation, but I could be wrong.

Ha.

Couldn’t have been when most FReepers’ went to high school.
It took many more long years for those two to get that ugly. A long process.
