No, the Democratic Party isnt divided or in disarray

54. I don't agree with him completely....

But looking at the past 15 years, other than Obama and a few special elections in the past year it's hard to argue that something is not 100% right with our tactics and approach.

Yes, some of this can be blamed on Republican shenanigans but not all of it.

In the past 15 years we only briefly controlled the house and the Senate and that was after.....wait for it.....Obama's election.

We control very few state houses, and ones we do such as New York are plagued by skeezy bullshit like the "Independent Democratic Caucus" giving control to Republicans.

This anti-Trump wave may get us some pick ups but if we want to sustain it we're going to need to work on our longer term strategy than just "Yay we won an election!!"

People are going to look at what Republicans did in the past year when they were in charge and even though most of them will hate it, they are going to see what is and is not possible, even with the slimmest of majorities. And people are no longer going to accept the excuses of "Well we don't have 61 votes, can't do it......President can't act unilaterally." and all of the other excuses.

So yeah...if we're going to dig our heels in and say that nothing needs to change about the Democratic party, just to spite something Bernie said......then we're going to be in a world of hurt.
