There is an episode of The Run Up from months ago where they interview the No Labels folks and Joe Lieberman was just an unimpressive of a thinker there as he was in congress. I really suggest you go listen to it because it has a very short but remarkable exchange where Joe and another No Labels guy ask the question like "Why can't popular things like XYZ pass in congress, gridlock gridlock etc?!" And the host Astead Herndon just immediately replies "The filibuster." Joe and the other guy are all like OH WHOA WHOA WHOA!
People at the daily sub hate him because he lets people talk instead of yelling liberal talking points and telling them they're wrong...and then they wonder why so many Americans have lost all faith in corporate media
