I have been researching the Democrats track record and ran across this article. I don't know how our government can be righted without getting rid of all that take campaign donations/bribes. Of course where I live in NJ, there are often no Dems on fhe ballot for lical race and of course the oneI voted for is on the list.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.At least from Jersey ya can smell corruption from a mile away. I moved away from NJ when I was 20 for Seattle WA but I was already jaded to the problem of big money in politics.
The SC decision has not helped, it will take a revamp of our election system and as long as either party profits from the status quo it is not going to change.

my sentiments exactly
Isnt it a. conflict of interest to be on climate change committees and taking oil money. that is the law they should pass. can't vote if have financial ties that you would benefit. whether contributions or personal investments.
I would never argue that every Democrat is perfect just as I would argue ever Republican is without merit. But, this “hit” list is a “these guy are bad” because they are not PROGRESSIVE enough. They are Democrats. They apparently please the people they represent or they would not be re-elected.
So what if they lean right or in the middle, they are still Democrats. Trying to beat them in a primary could lose the seat to a Republican. That would be a disaster when you need votes in Congress.
Too, I have another objection. Most people a moderates. They don’t support right wing Republicans and they don’t support left wing Democrats.

Thanks. I will look for it.
It really tells how corrupt our politicians are. Between their donations from big money interests to investments in oil, insurance companies, big pharma, we vote for the flunkies to this big interst companies addicted to their greed and flow of hundreds of thousands of dollars,if not more and the dividend and stock portfolio growth helped by blocking votes, voting against or for laws and amendments that her their constituents and help themselves and the donors they owe.
