Some words used by a well-known Democratic Party of Wisconsin official to describe fellow liberals/Democrats who question how the party has handled things here in Wisconsin since 2010:
- “crank”
- “gasbag”
- “War profiteer”
- “goldbricker”
- “childlike”
- “ridiculous”
- “malcontent”
While I know as well as anyone how easy it is to “Monday morning quarterback” the decisions made by party insiders when it comes to electoral politics here in Wisconsin, I know that we liberals/Democrats/progressives aren’t going to win the fights we need to fight if we don’t learn how to communicate without essentially shouting at each other – and at the rest of our fellow Wisconsinites.
And for the record, I think it’s healthy for those of us on the left who aren’t party insiders to question the decisions made by our leadership, because some self-examination and discussion about what went wrong certainly seems to be in order.
