I want to clarify, though my longtime followers probably assumed, that I don't include myself in the "some" here. I believe in Russiagatepic.twitter.com/GBZ6EqJi2W

Curious; If this is such a sea-change in center left support for IC, why weren't there any substantive changes post-Snowden?

Why did Center Left vote for Iraq War? Why did Dem party rush through Comey confirmation w/enthusiasm? Is there ANY evidence of sea change?

Did you see the Comey confirmation hearings? Quintessential "overly demonstrative display of affection." For a guy who signed off on torture

Ditto the entire Clinton campaign. It is nonsense to say there has been a sea-change.

you're welcome to disagree with my characterization—I did my best to describe what I saw.
