The real problem for the DFL is that the "abide by the

problem here, if the DFL
were more focused on getting great candidates than
keeping it's ranks
relatively small and insular.
Rubbish. Please feel free to cite even a single
instance where the party's loyalty requirement has
cost us from having great candidates for office.
Again, if people do not want to abide by the
endorsement they are always able to run in a primary
or in the general election as an independent. Just
don't expect us to lower our standards 'cause you
don't like it.
