What the HELL is the DLC up to???

I've been a lukewarm defender of the DLC around here, and I still think they've gotten a bad rap from a lot of people here, but stuff like this really pisses me off:

"DLC leaders have criticized former Vermont governor Howard Dean, whose antiwar rhetoric fueled his rise to prominence in the Democratic presidential race, and today, Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.), the DLC chairman, warned that the party is "at risk of being taken over by the far left." The choice for Democrats, Bayh said, is, "Do we want to vent or do we want to govern?"

Way to promote party unity, guys. It looks to me like Al From and company are trying to do what Nader did in 2000, only from the other side.
