You Cannot Win If You Do Not Play

Chris Capuano is a pitcher. The Member of Congress you have in mind is Mike Capuano.

Mike, not Chris, Capuano.

Unless, that is, you were talking about the Mets southpaw. Who, as it happens, is both a native of Springfield MA and old enough to be a Senator.

Let me guess ... you have Chris on your fantasy team.

You cannot win if you cannot play - I'd like to put a plaque with those words over every Congresscritter's desk.

If they don't get out there and make the argument for a left-of-center worldview, then the conservative worldview will be the frame for every battle over specific issues.

And that's where we are right now. We need Democrats who aren't afraid to get out there and tell people why they're proud to be Democrats, why they believe it's the right side to be on.

You bet Warren's campaign will be getting a healthy contribution from me.
