Instead of letting the GOP get away with trying to create an anti-identity based solely on what they oppose and want to repeal, it's a good time to recognize who they really are as a party and what they truly stand for.
Many brave Democrats lost their seats in 2010 for voting for the ACA but in doing so, they saved and helped millions of Americans, past, present and future. What they did was noble and profound, they changed history for the better. Clearly, Manchin and Sinema are not cut from the same cloth but perhaps they can be leveraged to do the right thing and become reluctant heroes in the end despite themselves.

The Republican Convention climaxes tonight with Donald Trump's acceptance speech...well, maybe "collapses" is more appropriate than "climaxes".
Reid insisted in 2010 that delaying the debt ceiling vote would ensure that the Republicans would own part of the responsibility. And so we find ourselves on the brink of disaster.
