The Kos Crowd - a special breed of moonbat...

Much ado has been made of the declaration of war against the DLC made by Kos the other day. I've been reading through the 400 some-odd comments left on that post and I really can't believe how "out there" the people registered on his site really are.

It really is pretty amusing. I've made a few observations about these folks.

  1. They are not all united. Even among the ultra-left, there are several factions at odds with each other about how to best lose elections
  2. They sincerely believe that they represent the mainstream "average voter" rather than a fringe - and that their numbers are far greater than what the facts support
  3. They think the DLC Democrats are corporate slaves who are trying to move the Democrat party to the right of center
  4. They all think Howard Dean is a god

  5. And most interesting of all, no one I have read (that was a legitimate Kos poster) shows any concern at all that this internal party struggle could further reduce the total number of registered Democrats - and thereby weaken the party.
I like to joke about how nuts these people are. But seriously, it would seem that their major problem stems from a lack of realism. They just don't seem to understand how much of a minority they really are. Hope they stay in their echo-chamber. It'll only help elect more Republicans.
