Grab Bag Surprise

There has been a lot of chatter over the week-end about the apparently startling notion that Democrats winning in conservative districts might produce more conservative Democrats. I posted about it here. Matt Stoller wrote about it here, Jason Rosenbaum, here. It’s an interesting dilemma for progressives in the Democratic Party which is, as far as I can tell, encouraging all the candidates to run on a vague “change” agenda rather than explicit progressive policies. So, you get a bigger majority, but it’s less clear what it’s going to do. I guess we’ll see.
Uh, yeah.
