(459 posts)I understand the frustration that those on the left who chose not to vote may have cost us the election, but those in the middle also did. The derision here sounds more like a warning that if you are critical of Party leadership you are just ill informed as those in the satire. Ive noticed that the members this subject satire appeals to most do not equally deride those in the middle who voted for Obama but withheld their votes from Hilary. Its almost like its being used as a rhetorical device to push the party to court the MAGA complicit and shun those to the left. Or worse, those DU members to the left of our leadership should fall in line or else we are no less misguided than those third party voters. It seems the idea is that we failed the voters to the right of us whereas the voters to the left of us failed us. If so, this position is either just a disguised presentation of ones center right political views or a pragmatic position presented without argument.
