Great to see MGP getting some attention! Because there are precisely two possible futures for American politics at this point:
1. Dems find a lot more candidates with MGP's authenticity, independent streak, and appeal to normal people, and remain competitive in right-leaning states and districts, or ...
2. Decades of Orban-style dominance for Republicans.
Frankly the GOP is closing in on their pretty explicit goal of achieving #2. And literally the only future for any kind of liberalism in America runs through people like MGP and Jared Golden who can compete for the middle. The only problem with today's Blue Dogs is that we don't have more of them!
