Democrats have all the spontaneity of the House of Windsor. Or, closer to home, they’re closer to what Republicans once were, a party that falls in line not in love.

    They’re important enough to blame for all losses, but insignificant enough to treat with undisguised contempt.

      Seems like they deserve the contempt to me. They don’t get out they don’t organize they don’t find and promote candidates and when push comes to shove they say oh well fascism will be okay for a few years. They’d rather sit back and watch people’s lives be destroyed because they’re selfish pricks. Any idiot who thinks destruction of democracy is going to work out for the long term deserves contempt.

        If they’re numerous enough to blame for all losses, they’re numerous enough to be treated as a valuable constituency.

        Democrats would rather lose democracy forever than move to the left.
