There seems to be a lot of talk about a GOP Civil war tonight in the media. I have been vocal in places of the need to avoid this and have conservatives rule with a reasonable hand.
But no one is talking about the real Civil war that is about to erupt in the Democrat party.
Unlike the Conservative Rebels (that have numerous factions within themselves that are waiting to erupt and thus slows their progress) the democrat rebels are much more unified and powerful. A good article on this is here at Powerline.
Here is a part:
Meanwhile, Byron York points out that division among Democrats is at least as newsworthy:
MoveOn.org is sending out emails today seeking more contributions for its campaign to defeat any Democratic senator who does not fully support Obamacare. Yesterday the left-wing activist group asked members to contribute "to a primary challenge against any Democratic senator who helps Republicans block an up-or-down vote on health care reform." Today, MoveOn reports that it has received $2 million in pledges in less than 24 hours. "It's a clear sign of how angry progressives would be at any Democrat who helps filibuster reform," MoveOn executive director Justin Ruben writes in the new email. ...
MoveOn is already planning radio ads targeting Louisiana Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu and Arkansas Democratic Sen. Blanche Lincoln over the health care issue. ...
MoveOn's new threat of primary attacks on Democratic lawmakers suggests that the story might be a bit one-sided. Democrats who stray from progressive orthodoxy might be in for big trouble -- and the divisions inside the Democratic party might be just as big a deal as the problems inside the GOP.
Somehow, though, the fact that the far left is raising millions to defeat center-left Democrats, in what could be a reprise of the suicidal Ned Lamont campaign that was mounted by the same people, doesn't register on the media radar screen
