Katie,
I think many extreme liberals have -outgrown, transcended, faced reality,
been co-opted, etc. you choose the appropriate term-their idealism.
My comment was aimed at a Berkeley Liberal on our forum that has not
outgrown, transcended, faced reality, been co-opted etc.(you choose the
appropriate term.)
