One way I see it is that Dean, Pelosi and Reid sold their souls to get this election win, by bringing in more centrist, even conservative candidates. They might have planted the seeds that ultimately result in their own doom within the party. And that would be a great result. This country is much better off if truly the Democratic Party can move back towards the center, where they were before the moonbats took over the party in the early 70s. Agreed.
But they know that to be the majority Party they have to have a 'conserative' wing, as we have to have a 'liberal' wing in ours.
The key is not letting that wing effect policy, as we were letting the RHINO's do in the GOP.

Problem is that congresscritters are supposed to dance with the ones who brung 'em. If the House and Senate leadership doesn't let these "blue dogs" do that, then those who "brung 'em" will find dance partners from the other party. When congressional leaders force backbenchers into lockstep, it damages the transmission belt between people and their reps.
