Politics ain't Beanbag, but it sure as Hell ain't Brain Surgery. You can't release the Beast and know what is gonna happen to the nth degree. Instead of destroying the Democrat Party, it is far more likely it will do what the Beast does, which is kick our ass.
Sometimes I think some people just get bored with winning, and have to kick the hornet's nest just for excitement. Such people are idiots.
What you said, you said it well.
