Reply #77: Think Of the Democratic Party Like a Family

[evilkumquat]

We put on a polite face to outsiders, but when the guests leave and the front door is shut behind them, we immediately tear into each other about who did not close the bread bag tight enough or why no one bothered to replace the empty toilet paper roll.

Using this metaphor, our party should stick together and immediately close ranks whenever outside forces threaten, regardless of our own personal ideas as to what could make the family work better.

Not that this actually happens with the Democratic Party; often we are more like a pack of predators during famine times tearing into the weakest of our own kind to survive.
