He has been nothing short of a disaster, but the Democrats can’t let go of him, and the left wing utopian dreams of control and power and oppression that he represents to them. Keith Ellison would be disastrous as the next DNC chair, but that seems to be the direction they are going.
Ideologues are inflexible in certain areas, and the thing is to awaken to reality, they would have to lose their left wing pipe dreams, and they just can’t do that. They can’t admit they have been living for decades in a miasma of foggy thinking, factual misunderstandings, impudence, assumption, GroupThink, and continual failure (with respect, of course, to their claimed goals; in respect to getting power, their failures are quite recent, and record of success quite long).
So you have this spectacle of Obama being soundly rejected by voters in the election, and a Democrat Party that wants MORE, not less, of what was rejected.
We can only sit back and applaud. Their options are waking up, or disappearing. Both are good for the future of the United States and the world.
