The Democrats seem to be starting to get the idea that maybe they should do some opposing, but it's probably too little, too late.
I think George Washington was right; to have parties formed at all, no matter the number, was when it all went sour. Democracy would work properly without parties, just like capitalism would work properly without corporations; to give a group the rights of a person is to make the group more powerful than one person could ever be, making individuals effectively powerless.
