48. But what your post points out

Is that there are some who refuse to see reason. Maybe Democrats should just figure out what percentage that is and say, we don't pander for their votes. It seems it is impossible with the current electoral makeup for a hard right republican to win. So as long as Democrats start acting like Democrats, they'll win all those independents and moderate right who are appalled by the right wing clown car. And yet, the third way does their best to make something so simple very complicated in order to obscure that their agenda is the same as the Republicans. That's where the problem lies.
