Reply #11: The difference between our kneecapping and theirs

[Armstead]

They actually have a consistent set of principles. THe only real difference between the Teabaggers and the GOP Moderates is one of degree. The ideological goals of the GOP leadership and the their base are the same.

They may do their share of internal kneecapping over strategy and pace, but they are all moving in the same direction.

Democrats have no shared ideological goals We have the corporate centrists who are going in one direction, while the liberal base has a different set of goals.

And thus we pull in a self- defeating circle, which ultimately means the conservatism of the GOP wins.

The only that will change is if the Democratic Party actually becomes the liberal party...Then at least we'd agree on the same goals while we kneecap each other.
