Yes, that helps.
I just wonder how much your actual politics are advanced by your whatever-causes-Democrats-pain policy. It seems to me the former is ego, the latter all id. There needs to be a superego in there somewhere. Unless it's just all blowing off steam on the internet, in which case I get it, believe me. But I mean, after a while isn't all the steam blown?
