That's fair, but your engagement suggests that you & others in that category can get beyond such knee-jerk reactions :).

yes. But not everyone, and reachable dems (including me) have a pretty negative reaction to "told you so", for good or ill.

True, & that's to be expected. I like to think, though, that good people can check that reaction & then think more critically.

I'm not a fan of "we must look forwards, not backwards" reasoning. I think we must look backwards to move forward effectively.

Looking backwards is fine, but eventually we summarize and move forwards. Maybe not everyone is done summarizing yet.

That's what I'm generally going for (summarizing and moving forward). Also, Bernie is still a key part of moving forward.
