Did you see what happened in 2008?

A progressive won and if he hadn't ignored the DNC because they screwed him he could have changed leadership and made lasting change to the party!

The same people wouldn't be in charge and they wouldn't be grifting their cut off billionaire's bribes.

For the people running the DNC the only real loss would be a progressive winning, that's why they keep taking steps since then to ensure there's no chance of their pick losing again .

We ain't fighting the same fight as them. They're fine with a republican winning, hell, it drives up donations.

Calling Obama a progressive is rather laughable

He was in favor of civil unions instead of marriage for LGBT so... that's something I guess?
