If you were trying to envision an RLC that undermined the repubs the way the DLC does to us....

1. There actually IS an RLC.

4. Doesn't look a thing like the equivalent of the DLC

It looks like a Republican organization, founded by Republicans, promoting "traditional" Republican values.

Or in other words, it's exactly the opposite of what the DLC is - a blatant infliltration from an opposing party.

5. it's run by Christie Todd Whitman, a "moderate".....they are actually a lot like the DLC

they believe in the free trade BS.....

the people on their board were also considered "moderates":

6. Exactly. They're moderate Repukes, just like the DLC is.

But if the RLC was going to undermine the Republican party the way the DLC undermines ours, it would need to be made up of Democrats pretending to be Republicans.

7. true....I wonder why the two organizations just merge.....they have the same goal

fight for the elite while throw crumbs to regular people....

2. All facts aside of existing organizations. Like libertarians.

They're just the kind of splinter that makes sense if you squint hard enough.

3. Pretty much like ours, but with different dialog written for them.

A tool is a tool.
