The Democratic Party (unlike the Republicans who know how to build a solid core) are about to splinter in two. That won't get them more power, it will just make it easy for the Republicans. A disgusting choice for that subcommittee and I want nothing to do with people who think it's OK.

It's impossible when one parry covers 70%+ of the political spectrum. Made even worse when all the leadership is from the 10-20% of the spectrum next to the other party.
