You may be wrong about "minority factions" in the party. I personally think you are particularly if you include former D's who are now I's. At any rate, I don't think any particular group is going to "smash their way to control" within the organization, unless you mean that running against more centrist, neoliberal candidates in primaries and pointing out the areas where the D Party has and continues to come up short is "smashing their way". I don't see it that way at all.
I hope you can accept that I take exception to and disagree with your last paragraph. I don't see Our Revolution as "hoping and working for fewer Democrats to be elected to office" at all, especially for the reason you stated. In fact, I see it as the exact opposite. I think we will have more Ds holding office if they run on Our Revolutions positions and values.
