Democrats and the Wrong Element

Eight years ago, the Clinton advisers and Democratic pols would've considered it a serious miscalculation in even acknowledging people like Daily Kos. Now they're openly thanking them and attempting to buy their support. Meanwhile the Democratic Party has done nothing to stop the Democratic Underground--obviously populated by Anti-American, Socialist hooligans--from using that moniker.

It almost makes me wish that the Republican party had a better opponent, if only to make things challenging. There are local Red State voting districts where the Libertarians are the only party who run a candidate against the Republican. If the Dems don't shape up, the whole country is going to be like that soon.
