This was brought up many times after the 2002 election. The DLC-controlled DNC did not give financial support to US House candidates it dubbed "too liberal", which means any of them who opposed the war and the president's tax plans, and stood their ground.

Interestingly enough, the Democrats in close races who stood their ground ended up WINNING re-election, while those who caved to the DLC and the Repubs LOST.

This country already has a far-right party and a centrist party. We do not need two right-wing parties, with nobody representing the center and the liberals.
