@TiffanyBond if you sign a Contract For American Renewal, we can generate support from our supporters (Bernie or Busters) and activists with MPP and Real Progressives. https://citizensagainstplutocracy.org/ 

I think your pledge has some noble goals. I do not plan to sign any organization contracts because my loyalty is to nothing other than producing good law (and #ME02), which requires collaboration and devotion to the words on the page even more than the intent of the bill.

In that case we will do everything in our power to help your opponent. That's what "or else" means. The contract is to the VOTERS, and if you don't have loyalty to them, you shouldn't EVER come close to having power. #CFARorElse lose in November.

My main opponent is Bruce Poliquin, so...good luck finding his position more agreeable. Threats don't work on me. I work for good law and constituents. I cannot be bought, leveraged, or bullied into anything that's not reasonable, functional law.

I also suggest you rethink your strategy. Your pledge (as written) will force people into violating an agreement with you or making bad law. I would hope the pledge loses, because good law should win. Learn about the candidates, pick reasonable, thoughtful ones. Support them.

Nothing on the CFAR would lead to "bad law." You don't want to sign it? U don't want to win. It's that simple. You could sign onto 1 of the 11 litmus tests if that's all you can commit to, but if you can't commit to doing what you say you'll do, then there's 0 reasons to trust U.
