Reply #7: No need to, just use it for what it is.

The DLC is one branch of the Democratic Party. It raises a lot of money and pulls in some moderate to right-leaning voters who would otherwise vote Repub. They might even win a few Ds for us in regions where we would otherwise not have a chance. More Ds mean more chance for control of Congress, which means control of committees, legislation, Speaker, etc. Our whole problem now has nothing to do with the DLC or with non-Dem Dems--it has to do with having absolutely no power.

So let the DLC do what it does. It brings us more votes and more money, without being strong enough to control the party. They are a boogeyman spat up to frighten children and divert our energies away from the real enemy.
