Exactly, they will be 'forced' to tow the line.
One hope is that their level of conservatism actually causes a party split. They will have to be real tough first termers to accomplish it. They would have to be willing to lift the mask of the leaders of the democratic party and reveal them for what they are.
I don't hold out much for that hope.
