Why would the CEO of an explicitly progressive political tech consulting firm out himself as a “supporter” of McCain? And then take a “leave of absence” from said firm?
Odd. Disturbing. I don’t know what to make of this. There must be more going on here than meets the eye.

What really worries me about this is the attack and destroy nature of the democratic community who call themselves progressive. Eating your own is not progressive and they seem to do a lot of that. I do admire Nicco for having the courage to work for causes/people he believes in regardless of the pack mentality and us and them polarization of American politics. I would imagine that Lamont’s campaign manager took some flack for working for a millionaire in some crowds. Democrats are not right and Republicans are not wrong. The world is not pure.
