9. The Third Way is trying to blame their abject failures on progressive ideas & values...

They are directly responsible for losing a majority of governorships, a plethora of state houses, and the House and Senate. They were completely steamrolled by the minority republicon party in the census election of 2010 directly resulting in the extensive gerrymandered situation we have today. The DCCC and the DNC have been miserable failures under Third Way tutelage and yet they have the gall, the nerve, the arrogance to blame their failures on liberal and progressive ideas, values, and candidates. It disgusts me. Not only do we need a revolution to redirect the country, we need a revolt by rank-and-file Democrats to clean out these republicon-thinking third-way corporatist thugs who took over the Democratic party by silent coup.
