And I love it. They're ripping each other to shreds in the forums. I doubt this was Mr. Obama's explicit goal in this process, but it's a damn nice bonus. Hope he keeps the pressure on headed into '16. The more he riles up the derper base, the crazier their candidates will have to act in order to placate them, sending the moderates and independents running for the hills.
