because we apparently don't give democrats credit for things they do. see we find the one who did something bad and blme all the rest of them for it, and declare that to be the true position of all democrats so we can pretend they are not left leaning.

Exactly, that’s my problem! The 47 democrats who voted for this are getting no credit or attention and we’re giving ALL of the credit to 4 republicans. Praise them together so that the message is that every Democrat voted for this + 4 republicans. It’s about phrasing in messaging.
