As a DUer of moderate history, I am thankful for this. Maybe we can begin to become friends and again fight for the common cause -- to elect Democrats to office.

Don't like the Democrats in office? Well, work to become a delegate and help change the party like the Christians did with the GOP, from the inside and from the bottom.

If you want a progressive, liberal Democratic Party, get liberals and progressives into those precinct positions. But, I warn you all. It took the Christians a couple of decades to do it all. But when they got it done, they had the whole cake, frosting and all.

The have many state legislatures, too. That's the next stage. If DU doesn't see the stark future, they aren't paying attention.
