Third Way's statement on why their candidates were steamrolled last night.

[pa28]

http://www.thirdway.org/press/press-releases/third-way-statement-on-the-outcome-of-the-2014-elections

Last night was a sad one for Third Way. A number of our friends and current and former Honorary Senate co-chairs lost their seats. We believe in and respect these Senators, and we fear that Congress and the country will be worse off with their absence in Washington. Everyone is disgusted with all of the gridlock and the failures, but the tragedy of last night’s results is that these Senators were part of the solution, not the problem.

The reasons for their losses were many. Chief among them was a feeling on the part of voters that Democrats were not offering solutions equal to the task of restoring function to a dysfunctional government, and driving economic growth and prosperity that would make their lives better or more secure.

While the results were disappointing, it was a night filled with resolve. At Third Way, we are determined to help find a path forward through the dysfunction and discord. The country can ill afford two more wasted years of gridlock, and we will be offering ideas that can work even in a time of divided government. We hope that the Senators-Elect are coming to Washington in the spirit of comity, cooperation, and progress that the majority of their voters so clearly are demanding.

So there you go. Democrats need to compromise harder in the next two years.

[Autumn]

1. Well there you fucking go!

[djean111]

2. Fuck them. This is what they wanted. n/t

[Autumn]

3. Shout this shit from the fucking roof tops.

They third way needs to be wiped out.

[hedda_foil]

92. Third Way needs to follow their DLC predecessors into an early grave.

On the up side, us real Dems did succeed in exposing and exploding the DLC's myths, and they haven't been very successful at their latest rebranding effort aka Third Way.

We must always remember that the DLC and, I'm sure their successor organization, have been funded by the billionaires, banksters and global mega-corporations from their inception. The Koch boyos have been heavily involved from the start.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

4. God forbid that we should actually become an Opposition Party. Better to reach across the aisle

to get your payoffs.

[merrily]

77. Financial markets thrive better when things are "stable," meaning

not much change from one administration to the next. So said Carroll Quigley.

Sadly, though (sarcasm as to sadly), there was a massive change from the Hoover Administration to the Roosevelt administration. You want to avoid that kind of thing at all costs. And heaven knows, the "financial markets" (aka the 1%) weren't looking for Republicans to be the same as Democrats. So, really, for healthy financial markets, there's only way to go.(more sarcasm)

A bit more about Quigley:

Influence on Bill Clinton

In his freshman year in the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown, future U.S. President Bill Clinton took Quigley's course, receiving a 'B' as his final grade in both semesters (an excellent grade in a course where nearly half the students received D or lower).[2]: 94, 96

Clinton named Quigley as an important influence on his aspirations and political philosophy in 1991, when launching his presidential campaign in a speech at Georgetown.[2]: 96 He also mentioned Quigley again during his acceptance speech to the 1992 Democratic National Convention, as follows:

As a teenager, I heard John Kennedy's summons to citizenship. And then, as a student at Georgetown, I heard that call clarified by a professor named Carroll Quigley, who said to us that America was the greatest Nation in history because our people had always believed in two things–that tomorrow can be better than today and that every one of us has a personal moral responsibility to make it so.[17]

5. Well, that was enlightening....now I feel much better.

[madfloridian]

6. Aha...just what I expected. See my post. Tired of that group.

[yurbud]

8. good riddance to bad rubbish. Every DLC/Third Way/Blue Dog whatever the fuck they want to call

themselves should take an early career change to K Street and give the Democratic Party back to us.

[merrily]

64. New Democrats, neoliberals, pragmatic progressives, DLC, Third Way, No Labels, etc.

Used to be only criminals had that many aliases.

[yurbud]

85. Like blackwater, when your product is so repugnant, you have to change names

To keep fooling customers

[merrily]

87. Halliburton, too, but neither has as many aliases as does the DLC philosophy and

Blackwater and Halliburton use only one name at a time.

[yurbud]

109. Sort of like VD, that's gone through at least two name changes in my lifetime: STD's, STI's...

[Eleanors38]

117. Way they talk? That's tonsilar syphilis.

[AleksS]

9. That last sentence betrays a perfect disconnect from reality.

Did everyone read to the bottom?

"We hope that the Senators-Elect are coming to Washington in the spirit of comity, cooperation, and progress that the majority of their voters so clearly are demanding."

Good luck with that. Everything EVERY SINGLE THING in that sentence is delusional.

Think Ernst, et al are coming in a spirit of comity? Did this Third Way writer listen to the victory speeches? Spears? Blood? Tyranny? And that's what the candidates campaigned on! Their voters were NOT demanding "comity, cooperation, and progress," but scorched-earth, hatred, vitriol, and partisanship.

[deurbano]

30. Completely, startlingly delusional.

[City Lights]

78. Exactly! They are nutzo if they believe that.

10. In Total Denial

They're gonna continue to Lose.

[TBF]

34. I don't think they're in denial at all -

I think we're being set up. No one is that obtuse.

[fredamae]

49. You could be correct

It sure would help their trend rightward....

[merrily]

67. Thank you. The ones in denial are the Democrats who think New Democrats

are delusional, in denial, incredibly stupid, cowardly, trying too hard to be nice to Republicans, etc.

"Wake up, America," indeed.

[Eleanors38]

118. I lean thusly.

[2banon]

133. Bingo!!!

[Dont call me Shirley]

11. 3rd way assisted the Rs in creating the massive gridlock. Now they whine like toddlers whose

Mommy didn't give them all their Halloween candy.

3rd Way Democrats = Republicans

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

15. Well, of course. They are the "reality based community" of pragmatic politics.

Who are hell bent on supporting Republican policies and assuring us that it's smart to support them.

[merrily]

68. We've jumped the shark, gone through the looking glass or whatever metaphor

best describes this "thought" process.

[Marr]

12. That's *always* their message. If Democrats *win*, it's a

ringing endorsement of triangulation and proof that liberals can be ignored. If Democrats *lose*, it's proof that the party must move to the right and ignore liberals.

They're like Republicans are with tax cuts, only their issue is "move rightward".

[pa28]

16. Nailed it.

Last night was a stinging rejection of third way politics and of course they can't accept that.

[stillwaiting]

25. The Third Way didn't lose a damn thing last night. It's cute that they pretend otherwise though. nt

[LondonReign2]

94. ^^^THIS^^^

They are utterly transparent

[MuseRider]

104. Exactly.

Perfectly stated.

[mariawr]

121. Yep. nt

[closeupready]

63. Yes, it absolutely was an indictment of 3rd Way appeasement

policies.

[Enthusiast]

43. +1 an entire shit load.

[mazzarro]

72. Exactly 100% correct!

Whichever way the wind blows, "liberals must be ignored" is their constant mantra and moving rightward is the only direction they know how.

[harun]

81. +1

[PAProgressive28]

13. Not a clue among them

This should confirm everything being said on this board today

[stillwaiting]

142. I think they have a clue. I think they know perfectly well what they are doing.

They are catapulting the propaganda. Relentlessly. And, it seems to work on enough of the left that their agenda is ensured continued success.

They have a script, and they will stick to it. No matter what happens.

But, they certainly know what they're doing (in my opinion).

[Erose999]

14. Turd Way's board of trustees is composed entirely of investment bankers, CEO's, and

corporate lawyers. Some of the largest contributors to Turd Way are also big money donors to the GOP.

But what choice do we have? Me? I voted for Kodos!

You beat me to it. I thought this might have been something form the Onion, but instead it's from a phony think tank that barely tries to hide its roots!

[hedgehog]

102. Good Heavens - look what else is on your link:

"The DLC, another Third Way–style group that folded in 2011, was funded by none other than Koch Industries. Richard Fink, a strategist to the Koch brothers who helped found what is now known as Americans for Prosperity, was on the DLC’s board.

130. the Third Way is the Democratic Party what a company union is to unions

except the Third Way hides their true allegiance incredibly poorly.

18. Right?

Un-fucking-believable...

[JDPriestly]

97. Ain't it the truth.

They know their name is mud.

I expect them to lie low for awhile and come in full charge on a Hillary campaign.

And when they do, we will be here to ridicule the whole idea of running yet another Blue Dog, Third Way, DLC loser when we can have the real thing instead of Diet Coke.

(See the Guardian article on the election for the reference to Diet Coke. Says it all when it comes to the Third Way idea.)

[JEB]

19. What we can't fucking afford is more

environmental destruction, more tax cuts, more war, more searching for nonexistent middle ground. The way forward is right over the top of the tea baggers, GOPigs, and Blue Dogs.

[woo me with science]

20. They are trash.

Trash them.

[nc4bo]

21. Dysfunction? RepubliCon batshit crazy House? RepubliCon Senate? Dem President? Hello gridlock!

path through dysfunction and discord? The House and the Senate won't even be able to agree on what color the sky is or if water is wet.

What's Congress' rating again?
Bets on what that rating will be in 1 year? 2?

The GOP stinks of FAIL but they damn sure know how to sell. DLC/Third Way reeks of FAIL and can't sell ice to an Eskimo.

Time to try find ourselves as a Party again.

[Enthusiast]

41. That $7.25 minimum wage is going to look a whole lot smaller two years from now.

[markpkessinger]

22. The gray banner with the big white text near the bottom is the real kicker . . .l

"Fresh thinking delivered to your inbox."

That "fresh thinking" of theirs has been stale since the mid-90s, when it was the DLC peddling it.

[Enthusiast]

39. +1 an entire shit load.

[Hubert Flottz]

88. Plus another.

Their "Fresh Thinking" smells like a dead cow after yesterday.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

23. "The country can ill afford two more wasted years of gridlock..."

"We can ill-afford another Klendathu."

[rhett o rick]

47. We have to hope for gridlock. The alternative will be disastrous.

Pres Obama is probably already on the phone with McConnell about fast tracking the TPP and other "Free Trade" agreements.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

75. "So, Barry -- can I call you, Barry? --

you want the TPP, I want the TPP, we can show the people we can work together. What can you give me, Barry, to get this thing moving forward?"

[OrwellwasRight]

93. Exactly.

[Deny and Shred]

"Where's this been, pal? Back to business. I can offer plenty, just make a list. What I don't deliver, Hillary certainly will later."

[LondonReign2]

98. Obama to voters after Republican sweep of Congress: 'I hear you'

I shit you not:

"I told them both that I look forward to finishing up this Congress' business and then working together for the next two years to advance America's business," Obama said.

"But we can surely find ways to work together on issues where there's broad agreement among the American people."

Their only mantra is BOHICA - Bend Over, Here It Comes Again.

NO. NO! HELL NO!!! A THOUSAND TIMES NO!!!!!

56. i withdraw my suggestion in order to second yours.

The Turd Way HAS TO GO!!

[Hubert Flottz]

90. I nominate a

finely tuned forked blow torch for the turd way Skeerdycrats. And a greased up fired up high speed Big Boy steam locomotive, for the Turd way's, " Good Their Friends Across the Aisle!&quot can't use grease...because of "Sequestration&quot

[vi5]

27. The worst part of this dreck....

Is the fact that given his history, the President will take this message to heart, and so will the well paid "strategists" and party leaders who control the direction that Democrats go in moving forward.

[derby378]

28. If you bend over too far backwards, you lose any semblance of a spine

Unless your name is Zlata. In which case, damn.

[PAProgressive28]

29. From their Facebook page

"Democrats have no choice but to develop a political strategy and governing agenda that appeal both to liberals and moderates (and the non-trivial share of Democrats who say they are conservative). That can be a delicate balancing act, as both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama can attest. And it will become more difficult if Democrats succumb to a polarizing populism."

http://politi.co/1vRUvmj

[hifiguy]

59. The Repukes "succumbed to a polarizing (pseudo0 populism"

back in the days of Reagan The Simple.

A fiery left populism might open some people's eyes to the fact George Carlin pointed out - that the working and middle classes are getting a big red, white and blue dildo jammed up their asses courtesy of the people who own this banana republic.

Fuck the Turd Way and fuck bipartisanism.

[noiretextatique]

84. doublespeak, at its finest

republicons can win with a VERY narrow agenda, but democrats have to appeal to moderates and conservatives. so, democrats have to co-opt the republicon message in order to win...except they DO NOT win when they do that. utter bullshit.

[WhoIsNumberNone]

105. Yes, but sadly for them, it's the polarized ones who get out and vote in the midterms.

So yeah- Go out and court the people who don't care. That's a winning strategy...

[A Simple Game]

107. Screw the "non-trivial share of Democrats who say they are conservative"

they already have a choice, let them become Republicans and give us back our liberal Democratic party.

[mariawr]

123. No. Just No. Progressives are what they fear most. What WE need most. nt

[RKP5637]

31. So, Third Way wants to have gutless democratic politicians afraid of their own party

and ripe for manipulation by the GOP. That's how I read Third Way. What a losing strategy for democrats and a winning one for the GOP. More of the SOS IMO!

[Spitfire of ATJ]

32. These smug assholes learned from Conservatives to never admit when you're wrong.

[Enthusiast]

36. Precisely.

[stillwaiting]

114. They are Conservatives on economic policy. Social liberals perhaps...

They are investment bankers, and their interest in maximizing THEIR profits takes center stage quite clearly. They have yet to convince me that they care in the slightest for the economic interests of the middle class, working class, and poor in America. They certainly don't ever fight for policies that would help them.

They have been very successful in getting the Democratic Party to follow their conservative ideas.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

115. That's because of the myth that what's good for Wall Street is good for America.

[Enthusiast]

35. Third Way can't wait to cut Social Security.

37. Pure comity gold....

[Autumn]

65. No, it's tragic. It will be pure comedy gold when Manny gets ahold of this.

[IDemo]

110. It was a play on words

"Comity", from the article, implying a state of bipartisanship which very obviously is not going to happen.

[Autumn]

111. I know, I just couldn't resist the comedy bit.

Manny does a good third way. Comedy and tragedy. I guess you had to see in my mind to get the connection.

You are saying to compromise correct;
You are saying to sell my entitlements to the Wall Street banks for a 6.2% profit right:
You are saying to completely privatize Medicaid and Medicare to Wall Street :
You are saying that people should be denied the right to vote and there needs to be compromise, let me ask you, is voting a privilege or a right:
You have a media elite and journalist that did not hold the right wing hypocrites feet to the fire, they failed in there job description and you are saying what listen to Meet the right wing pundits Press and that jibber jabber, or better yet Face the right wing Nation and you say compromise :

[DeSwiss]

''...but the tragedy of last night’s results is that these Senators were part of the solution, not the problem.''

[AgingAmerican]

62. More of the same

They keep losing us elections, and they will continue to do so as long as they run the Democratic party.

[jalan48]

66. Meaning of Third Way

I finally realized what the "Third Way" means. It means taking it in the ass. Thanks Third Way Democrats! At least you could advocate for lower prices on lube.

[raindaddy]

69. One thing we won't see.

The Republicans as the minority party in the Senate were still able to block legislation that benefited the poor and middle class while maintaining the status quo.

We won't see the same from the Democrats and I doubt if we'll see Obama using his veto.

[wolfie001]

71. I'm sure these pricks are salivating over Social Security/Medicare cuts.

In the name of bipartisanship of course. Fuck them and the horse they rode in on.

[workinclasszero]

74. "I'm sure these pricks are salivating over Social Security/Medicare cuts"

You can bet your ass on that one friend!

I'm sure Harry Reid and the third way traitors will bend over backwards to make it happen too!

[WHEN CRABS ROAR]

73. The path forward is to go on the attack,

not rolling over.
The voters want affordable health care, infrastructure repaired or replaced, corporations paying their share of taxes, good paying jobs here and not outsourcing them overseas and the environment protected.
That's what the voters want.

[Depaysement]

79. We are the party in opposition now

Why should we compromise? Isn't our job to show that our policies, ideas and elected officials are better than theirs? Isn't that the point?

Sometimes I think Third Way Dems hate democracy more than the Tea Party does.

[noiretextatique]

86. +1000

they most definitely detest liberal democrats.

[MerryBlooms]

82. ?

More like the spirit of comedy- they're laughing at us, all the way to the bank.

[Maedhros]

89. Crocodile tears from the Third Way.

Behind closed doors, they are rejoicing - no impediment to supporting Republican policies now!

[JDPriestly]

91. What a pitiful waste of bandwidth.

These fools never give up.

The Third Way candidates lost because they prefer kissing up to corporations to standing up for ordinary Americans.

Where is Eleanor Roosevelt when we need her?

[merrily]

112. Still dead, after all these years.

Sorry, an uber self-absorbed ex boyfriend of my sister's asked my sister at a party how our mother was, years after he'd been told of my mother's death. (She had died while my sister was overseas, visiting him.)

My sister, still in love with him, was speechless. My sister's protective friend did a take off on Simon and Garfunkel's Still Crazy After All These Years and gave him the reply in my subject line When I saw your question, I could not resist.

Two occasions for gallows humor, I guess, the boyfriend's question and this election.

[Eleanors38]

119. Unfortunately, turd way ain't dead, just smells that way.

141. Sadly, Mrs. Roosevelt is not still among us.

She was an icon and a positive force of nature.

but they certainly complimented each other politically, carrying out policies together neither could do alone. She was gutsy in her world view and FDR was strongly anti-imperialist. Such lost modernity.

99. Fuck 3rd Way

Fuck them. Want to be Republican Light? Then run as Republicans, you spineless bastards! Fuck off.

[AZ Progressive]

100. It takes a wilfully weak opposition to let the Republicans win

Reminds me of rigged boxing fights.

[Eleanors38]

120. Victimization lifestyle is a bad habit learned well.

[blackspade]

103. Please tell me this is from the Onion.

If not these third way idiots are delusional.

[pa28]

106. I don't think The Onion could have done as well.

They blame the loss on Democrats not compromising enough.

Meanwhile they fail to mention Republicans won by not compromising at all.

[blackspade]

108. Agreed on all counts.

[GeorgeGist]

116. I thought it was Borowitz.

[Tom Ripley]

122. FTW

[Progressive dog]

124. It's much easier to use third way as a boogeyman

than to actually analyze why so many Democrats lost.
We do still hold an important branch of government.
You should explain which compromises the Democrats made that cost us the election.

[Zorra]

125. Third Way/New Democrats/DLC are the people who made those compromises.

We need populists to run our government, not corporate tools. The reason Elizabeth warren is so popular, the reason why she was so in demand to campaign with Dem candidates who were up for election, is that she is viewed as an anti-corporate democratic populist.

Why waste time analyzing the symptoms, when we already know the cure for the disease?

Repeating the same mistakes over and over again, and expecting a different result is flat out stupid.

[Progressive dog]

127. So all compromises made by Democrats are the fault of 3rd-way

and not one example given. Those unspecified compromises resulted in losses in the midterms.
That is an interesting way of looking at the results, but===
The same results include the last two presidential wins. The only nationwide elections that are held. It is usual for the party holding the Presidency to lose seats in a midterm.
My Senators and my President are populists. I'm not sure about my Congressman, but even some Republicans try to work for people.

[Hissyspit]

137. They are not a boogeyman. They're real and they do damage.

http://metamorphosis.democraticunderground.com/10025688486

No, they are not the cause of all of it.

[Progressive dog]

138. They are used as a boogeyman,.

it really doesn't matter that the group exists. The people that are in office are elected by a majority of voters.

[Bluenorthwest]

139. Look at our Senate seats lots and who lost them. Now look at those held and who held them.

It's not that moderate Third Way thinking is a boogeyman, it's that they are the losers. I liked winning this week, with Jeff Merkeley and Peter DeFazio and that sort of candidate. I did not enjoy watching those other losers lose.
It's not 'the Democrats' who made mistakes, it was some Democrats, and they paid for it.

[Progressive dog]

140. So we can win seats in states with a majority of RW voters by

running even farther left. That is a unique perspective on the election.

[woo me with science]

126. I like this thread:

Ignore the 3rd Way shills with extreme prejudice
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10025767160

[pa28]

128. 20+ years of political triangulation have produced a clear result.

At some point arguing with 3rd wayers becomes a little like engaging the climate deniers. Nothing useful can be gained and now it becomes time to close the window on debate.

[lark]

129. Yep, Dems being Repugs is such a winning strategy - NOT.

This just gives them a bigger excuse to do what they wanted to do in the first place, joint arms with their Repug brethern in screwing the working class.

[ms liberty]

131. They call themselves democrats...

But I look at them and see Liberal Republicans. They were run out of their own party for being liberal on social issues but they're still republicans economically.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

132. so much bullshit. so little time.

[jtuck004]

135. The last 6 years have been sad ones for about 50 million people, but you made sure banksters

were happy. Now you care when when it affects you. Don't bother calling.

[Cha]

145. Yeah Right.. "We hope that the Senators-Elect are coming to Washington in the spirit of comity,

cooperation, and progress that the majority of their voters so clearly are demanding."

Like that's gonna happen.
