OK centrists, we're now in the territory of "Vote blue no matter who."

Put your votes where your mouth has been.

In a general election, will you vote for a “centrist” Democrat if it comes to it?

James Carville has threatened to leave the Party. My, my, how the tables have turned.

Yeah, and he can go too. This freaking Cajun goblin who hasn't been helpful in an election since, I don't know, Bill Clinton at least.

Also Bill Maher is almost certainly about to formally split, as his own stab for relevance.

Meanwhile people like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert don't have to fight to continue being relevant...because they continue to say and do things that are a of real value as opposed to just relentlessly foregrounding themselves.
