Anthony Pollina Wants to Be a Democrat

Following the lead of Peter Clavelle who has has chosen to run for Governor of Vermont as a Democrat rather than as a Progressive, his party affiliation for years, Pollina says he'll run for Lieutenant Governor also as a Democrat.

So much for those lofty Progressive principles and ideology. When the chips are down these guys want to win rather than continue sponsoring their 3rd party movement. I don't think the Democrats appreciate having their party hijacked by the left-leaning Progressives. Or maybe they're pleased too because power to control the policy agenda is what any political movement or party wants.
