    I’m saying that the same PUMAs who jumped ship and tried to give us VP Palin are hypocrites when they scream at progressives for not voting in accordance with their sense of entitlement.

      I still don’t understand. Are you saying democrats forced palin through in order to turn republicans off and are now surprised that progressives don’t want to vote for a candidate they don’t like?

        In 2008, when Clinton lost the primary to Obama, her supporters formed a PAC to try to get McCain/Palin elected. They didn’t get their very first choice and behaved worse than they accuse progressives of being.

        Progressives didn’t form a PAC to elect Trump. Centrists did form a PAC to elect McCain/Palin.
