    If progressives take over the party then wouldn’t you want Democrats to win the elections at least they want a democracy. The right wing has decided if it is a choice between democracy and power they want power.

      Democracy isn’t an end in and of itself; if you’re ever choosing between democracy and weilding power to do the things you were elected to to, that would benefit the people, you don’t have a democracy.

      This is relevant when the corporate democrats find all the red tape they need to justify not taking actions their voters want, but their donors don’t.
