Well yes, we do think of it. Look at it in fact, this is what YOUR policies did regarding the SC'.
For a long time the Left knew something was wrong but didn't know what. They held their noses, with promises of 'okay, we won the House, but that is not enough, we need the Senate and the WH'. So we got all that for them, then they told us to 'STFU' because our 'ideas are retarded' and much more.
NOW they are BLAMING the Left for their losses. The gall to think that people are going to keep voting for their carefully chosen Third Way candidates, then being told to STFU about serious issues which they are handing over to the Republicans, like SS.
They may get what they wanted, total control over the party, but without the Left that isn't going to win elections for them.
