I hope you are correct, I really do, but it is YOU who do not understand the monolithic nature of the modern Democratic species. It is not the party of your grandfather, or even your father. It will commit suicide for its agenda, and take as much collateral damage with it as possible.
I am very well aware of that having been a Scoop Jackson Democrat in my youth.
But what you are missing is that this is now no longer the party of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Donna Brazille or Debby Wasserman-Schultz any longer either. They will be fighting within to create its new identity with new leadership. And there will be a bloodbath of different egos and ideas at work to create the next version of the leftist party.
