Democracy for America

many on DU conveniently forget that Howard was the bane of the liberals in Vermont because he compromised with the enemy to achieve a very lofty goal: Healthcare coverage for ALL of Vermonts children.

Like the magic pony crowd with Obama's healthcare bill, he was almost excommunicated from the progressive movement there.

Because practical reality dictated that the perfect was the enemy of the good.

Howard supports the President. No President is or can be perfect. But according to many at DU, who have given Howard saint status, he's a huge disappointment because he isn't.
