Guy rates himself. Painful.
The Dems have been stabbing their best, most progressive members in the back for decades. As Cenk said, they're afraid of the genuine change voters are desperate for. They're just as addicted to money and power as the Republicans, just in a less obvious fashion.
Cenk: rationalization at its finest. gross conclusions somehow arise from some solid observations. The "MSNBC" is still strong in that one.
