Why do flagship "Democratic" sites (even ones with "Democratic" in their name) focus so intently on what Republicans do and say?

I googled "Pic of the Moment democraticunderground" and here are the results:

https://www.google.com/search?site=imghp&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1440&bih=739&q=pic+of+the+moment+democraticunderground&oq=pic+of+the+moment+democraticunderground&gs_l=img.3...696.6837.0.6949.39.8.0.23.0.0.355.864.2-2j1.3.0....0...1ac.1.64.img..13.2.509.H8OvIdYcfc8

The "Pic of the Moment" is the first and most prominet thing visitors to the site see, and it's always about something horrible or stupid that a Republican did or said. It's exactly the same thing over at DailyKos.

What this tells me is that Democratic Party operatives know that the Party establishment has no new ideas or solutions to present, so they bury us under Republican horror stories to keep us scared and angry and thus controlled.
