It's kind of vague on where the line gets drawn.
Because as we all know, there are some public figures with the "D" next to their names who behave unethically, or go too far to the right.
These days, the target du jour seems to be Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, but in the past, figures have included Max Baucus, Ben Nelson, Mark Pryor, and Joe Lieberman, just to name a few, who were incredibly obnoxious in obstructing a Democratic agenda, or pushing right-wing crap from wars to screwing the working class to religious nuttery.
Where does the line get drawn as to what's hideable? For example, today, I'll say that Debbie Wasserman-Schultz's support for the payday loan industry is legitimately worthy of criticism.
