(7,865 posts)It makes it easier to continue to castigate and blame the left for all ills. And why not? The last thing the punditocracy wants it that the left be powerful enough and taken seriously enough by the candidates that they ought to actually try to campaign towards progressive issues and vote to enact progressive policy. The pundit class makes its money by convincing the Democratic part that middle aged white male voters are the most important thing in the world and that they need to tailor every message to aquire their votes. By the way, this has been a losing strategy for democrats for a long time.
And when they lose for having abandoned progressive police and rhetoric the failed conservadems can go back to spinning on right wing leaning mainstream media outlets and fox and sell books about how the Democrats lost because they went to far to the right. Pygmalia anyone?
Seriously give it a friggin rest already. You couldn't sow more discord in the party if you were an actual Republican.
