What is there to say?

By their actions the Democratic Party thinks things are basically fine and all that needs to be done is some tuck-pointing around the edges and hanging some bright shining objects up so everyone can "oooo" and "ahhhh."

Until that changes, and nobody reading this has the power to change it, nothing will change.

I have to agree with your comment.  However, that points to a way in which the "Leftist Teabaggers" notion could be quite positive - getting seriously aggressive in primaries, and knocking people out.  It's worked wonders on the Republican side, where many who were wavering after Obama's victory were brought back to the farthest right-wing fringe by the activists.

Admittedly, the Teabaggers have some big advantages, in being funded by rich crazies and promoted by national television celebrities and networks, and accorded all the praise and respect that any mouthpiece of the far right will get.  The fact that it has required all this to build any support at all for their utter and complete insanity is telling, though.
