    Modern Democrats (hell maybe it’s always been this way) have been about patronage networks, elections are only useful insofar as it allows you to maintain your patronage network. The DNC with it’s stable cycle of grift means that winning elections isn’t even required anymore. You can bilk a few million suckers every year, with a huge bonus every 4years.
