"They closed the doors, and ALL those "Business Friendly" people and ALL that Big Money just Went Away!! "
/sarcasm

AND, I'll raise you one because your premise is absurd:

Like all reptiles, the DLC shed its skin when its name recognition and brand became a negative,
a popular Big Corporate deception. It has evolved into the "New Democrats" and now The 3rd Way Democrats.
Their mission remains the same,
their people remain in high office inside the Party,
their loyalty to their funding source remains consistent,
and until we can rid ourselves of this cancer,
the once great "Party of the Working Class" will keep carrying water for the 1%.
