The sad thing is that this should be a satire thing but it really isn't.
The democratic party leadership isn't actually filled with 5th column conservatives. But what it is filled with is people who have been patholigically conditioned to find compromise at every step.
They've been convinced, since JFK got his dome popped, that the only way to do business is to court the right because the Left has no choice but them, and because young leftists just won't turn out to vote.
That's obviously not the case, or if it was, it was because they screwed the pooch every time.
So they can't really conceive that energizing your voting base by offering actual policy changes and pushing for things that aren't compromises with a group of extremeists who make up barely an 8th of the nation but have gerrymandered their way into power is the answer.
Edit: Wow a lot of people are reblogging this, but I think I do a better job of explaining all of this in a follow up post!
