In a microcosm, this is a perfect example of why Democrats lose. lol no, that is not anywhere close to why dems lose elections... you know what turns off voters? The bitching and whining about how the different wings of the party are called. crunchie simply means ultra left. Nothing more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crunchies actually makes sense on multiple levels depending on the context in which it's used. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's turn on each other and call each other names..... All the while, the repugs are arm in arm, walking lock step (goose step) together and voting whatever bullshit it takes to win. Keep calling us progs or crunchies or whatever other offensive term you can come up with. Keep proving me right. Meanwhile, the other side smiles as you do so.

Thats a you problem. All I did was shorten the word. The response to it has been insane. If I wanted to demean the left I would use one of the many terms out there.

OILERMAN Posted Wednesday at 11:37 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 11:37 AM The right has done a great job making "liberal", "progressive"(prog), "Leftist" and "socialist" scary and bad words. Even democrats don't want to be called these names. The right, media and corporate dems can't argue against the policies from progressive democrats because the majority of Americans actually support the policies from progressives so the name calling and demonizing is all they have.
