Reply #25: It's far more nefarious a group than most of us care to imagine.

I'm no scholar in this area and I do not profess to harbor any extraordinary intelligence regarding the workings of the DLC et al.....however, I ask my self these rhetorical questions:

If I were interested in destroyed a competing organization or political party, how would I go about it? This is an especially difficult task considering that my ideology is fast becoming exposed as a failed socio-economic construct (unfettered capitalism).

I would obviously have to find a way to weaken the opposition in order to even have a chance to compete. Sabotage is the answer. In order to sabotage an organization one needs to infiltrate it.

I believe there was a concerted effort by conservatives to infiltrate the Democratic party, but there was a twist. In this case they did it in broad daylight; out in the open. Instead of pretending to be traditional democrats they chose instead to admit that they are not interested in traditional democratic values.

They gradually made the case that because they can win, they are true heirs to the party leadership. However, Bill Clinton's great victory was a result of Ross Perot's candidacy.

To summarize, the "middle way" is the path towards the full and complete descent into a fascist state through the elimination of any representation of labor and of civil rights.
