217. Actually, now that I've re-read my post, I should not have included the term "DINOs".

I have edited my post accordingly. DINOs are, of course, those who espouse right-wing policies and rhetoric while claiming/pretending to be Democrats.

My focus was not actually on the president in the context of the OP. What I meant to say was that it's discouraging to see the different party factions, from near-extreme far left to centrist being so far apart from each other on the job the president is doing. There's no team here, it seems. And we lose in Congressional races to rethugs and teabaggers because of it, I think.

I'm not seeing an especially aggressive extreme-left faction. But from as far left as we have represented on DU to the center, I see such hatred and animosity on our side, as is demonstrated in the sub-threads above. Now, assuming DU is a microcosm of the larger world of the Democratic Party, then it becomes very discouraging to see the infighting and intra-party hatred and all I can see for the future from the lack of teamwork and the animosity and Democrats calling each other right-wingers and repubs is many more years of rightwingnut control of Congress, and possibly the White House in the future.

Don't know if I've helped make my point any clearer...
