Barney was my neighbor in Washington years ago. Bright, funny and likeable. A personality. Congress could use more like him on both sides of the aisle.
Frank is right, but younger voters in particular tend to stake their vote to single issues on which they will not compromise. Democrats need to appeal to the wider social and community concerns these single issue voters have, engaging their wider sense of morality and desire for accountability, and explain that protest voting for third party candidates (or non voting) is at present a vote for Trump and his cabal of fanatics.
Democrats need some vision & backbone...you know...like Barney had!
I’ve always had great admiration for Barney Frank and I will send a prayer as he transitions to another place.
Pragmatic progressivism. The far left of our party is costing us elections I am sorry to say. .
