Yep, Goldy and the netroots sink an endorsement for Darcy Burner:
Burner, a Carnation Democrat, is a smart, tech-savvy candidate who’s mounted another vigorous challenge. She is a celebrity in the world of MoveOn.org, ActBlue and the Daily Kos. Her campaign has been powered by vast sums of money from the liberal blogosphere.
Not surprisingly, Burner tends to reflect the political enthusiasms of her supporters. Her opposition to international trade agreements is troubling. Like others opposed to free trade, she champions “fair trade” – a term of art for encumbering agreements with U.S.-dictated labor and environmental rules that would be deal-killers for major trade partners.
This stance would poorly represent the nation’s most trade-dependent state – a major beneficiary of the North American Free Trade Agreement Burner opposes.
Burner is just too liberal for the district; and so are the netroots.
