He has made his arguments and had at least a good portion of them set into the party platform. It will be hard for his supporters to accept, but this is not a situation in which he will win respect from his colleagues by being a complete ideologue. He has done what one would expect a gentleman to do. That is no disgrace either personally or politically.
Running under the Dem banner, he's done what's expected of him.
I do agree he's a gentleman. Seems he's met his primary goal of shifting the platform that much more left of center. He's now in a prime position to help do some great things.
