There's no need to move on, but we need to understand what can actually be done. Lauren and her fans do not. They (you?) live in the dream that the public is more left than reality has shown in every national election. That does not mean rejecting mainstream Dems--it is the Dems who gave us all the social benefits we have today, and it will be the Dems who can keep us moving forward. But it will be incremental change, not rapid revolution.
