Better: It is silly to _credit_ the Green voters. We can't give them (or at least the Green Party) such credit until they seriously cut into the illusion that the DP is even a weak agent of even the tiniest reforms.

Incidentally, Nathan himself is exhibit No. 1 of the continuing damage done by the DP's grip on leftists: that grip deprives us of crucially needed political talent. It is very sad that Nathan's organizational skills and analytic power should be devoted to the interests of oppression rather than of freedom.
