I do (dis)criedit the Democratic Party by being totally absent except for a few months after primaries "BUT THE PRIMARIES" when it should be blasting the issues upon which Democrats all agree, and standing up for Democrats targeted by the hate and lie machine, which the repubs run 24 by 7 by 365.

In fact, the party has success when it attacks oligarchy, the cause of our troubles and instigator of division.
