I will tell you as a former DU'er and life time Democrat, (till recently) those people over there have been hijacked by the extreme lunatic left. True Democrats are embarrassed and disgusted by them.

True Democrats are embarrassed and disgusted by them.

... which is exactly why the DNC and the press ignore them.

As much as I disagree with Democrats on policy issue, what you say is definitely true. There are maybe 4 or 5 mainstream democrats on DU(and one of them seems to have exiled himself to talking strictly about the 2nd amendment). I feel for them because their fellow DUers always seem to have their knives at the ready. The rest of the board is dominated by greens, communists and socialists. Some are open about it, some hide behind the label progressive. Either way, the Dem party would rather die than be associated with that board.
