All of us.... No, all of YOU, are guilty of allowing what you want, to interfere with your perception of reality. It's human nature.
But not here. I'm not allowing that emotion to interfere with some cold, hard facts about the dimocrap party.
People, it's falling apart. Ir seriously is.

Bloc Party The Far Left Stages a Coup The Wilderness Viral Politics Done Differently
A snippet --
There’s a poorly kept secret in the media and on the progressive Left heading into 2016: They don’t want Hillary Clinton.
Thanks to two devastating midterm losses (courtesy Barack Obama’s mulish incompetence plus Obamacare) the Democratic party’s bench has not only been depleted, it has been completely eviscerated. Politics is not unlike sports franchises: local talent is discovered and crafted into state parties, which are like farm teams. Those local talents are fostered and brought up into the Big Show where they either become stars or are out of the league in a couple years. Barack Obama’s legacy won’t be defined by unilateral executive orders, failed trade deals, or a failing healthcare law. It will be defined as the eight years the Democrats lost a generation of talent, and with it their soul. They find themselves stocked with one Chief and no Indians. Okay, one Indian.
As the aged, entitled nominee-to-be Hillary Clinton stealthed her way from one fast-food restaurant to the next, her former campaign manager (and current groundhog-murdering mayor of New York City) Bill de Blasio, flanked by Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, led a party/messaging revolt at a press conference announcing a new socialist progressive contract with America. It was a staged revolt against their own party’s failings in 2014 and a warning to a rudderless administration and Presidential front runner: No matter who their party’s nominee is in 2016, they are not going away quietly.
Hillary Clinton has been put on notice. And Barack Obama, as of last Friday and the defeat of his fast track TPA trade legislation, has been put on leave.
