With a threat like that, they need to get voter registration forms and wave them in front of Waters/Pelosi faces and tell them to go ahead and run a liberal because the Blue Dogs are from more Conservative districts and then tell them you run a liberal against me, I am running as a Republican.
Knew it was going to come down to intimidation and get dirty. Bet they have threatened to cut off their funding as well.
If they’re smart, they’ll change their party affiliation and be Republicans. Being a Democrat in 2010 looks like a losing proposition at present according to the generic ballot. Nancy Pelousy is hated and not trusted, and only by electing a GOP majority can she be hoisted out of the Speaker seat.
But it also shows that Maxine’s an idiot (we all knew that) because these Blue Dogs ran specifically AS conservatives. If they’d run as liberals, they’d never have been elected in the first place. Maxine’s threats are groundless - because they are going to get an earful when they get home.
