Yeah, there's infighting in the Democratic party with regards to direction. That could be a real problem for them if it's not somehow resolved. Republicans are adopting more moderate candidates more easily I think. Especially since they've had quite a few retirements, including one of the people I voted for during primaries. He is a lot more relaxed with regard to social issues (such as gay marriage), so while the progress is slow, it is there.
Hard left candidates running against run-of-the-mill blue dogs may not come out of the wash the same way because two are running on very different ways of governing/policy.
The other controversy is that Nancy should step aside and let new blood come in and let the next generation step up to run the party. That's wise advise, but Nancy is considered a safe bet.
She is a bit whackadoo though... I remember a ways back after one election right before a recess. I want to say closer to the Holidays. She made this big speech, that they would all stop everything they were doing, going to really knuckle down, wouldn't leave until they were done and come out with the biggest Reforms
in history.
Yeah, they went on that recess. She does things like that.
