    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted David Marcus

    It's not that progressives do not have that responsibility, but that it is a given that they won't exercise it. Also: Republicans have traditionally attracted voters who wanted responsible, adult leaders. The question is whether to give up on attracting those voters.https://twitter.com/BlueBoxDave/status/1395133504829239298 …

    There’s this prevalent idea, Cheney says it all the time, that conservatives have some special responsibility to call out bad behavior that progressives don’t have. It’s self defeating nonsense that too many Republicans swallow.

        Why paint everyone with such a broad brush? Virtue (the real kind) doesn't come with a party identification or a political philosophy. It stems from something inside a person, a clear knowledge of right and wrong and the desire to act on it.

        You should try and address the reality that actually exists, rather than the one you’ve created in your head.

        @BlueBoxDave and @baseballcrank , I want adults in the room. But, boy howdy, I want the GOP to actually *fight.* And I don't just mean publish articles or get on FOXNEWS. I mean the day-in, day-out fight. And, I want them to help EDUCATE the public as well.

        Fight as in try and overthrow the elected government again? I think we’ve all had enough of that special brand of conservatism.

        Perhaps the issue is that progressives haven’t participated in or supported a domestic coup in recent memory while Republicans have, thus the call on conservatives to police their own.
