How does it help us to ignore the struggle inside the DP, of which Krugman's opinions are an expression?
The "inside" of the Dumbocratic Party--a "party" with no members--is even harder to find than the "struggle" within it
To say that the DP is a bourgeois political formation is an abstraction. The truth -- as grandpa Hegel wrote -- is concrete...
And the concrete truth is that the Dumbocrats (like the Repugnicons) is a bunch of corrupt swindlers, not a "party" in any sense that a Marxist would recognize as such. As Koko put it, "apologetic statesmen of a compromising kind..."
...Just in the last year, the DP was the vehicle for the election of a Black candidate to the presidency...
Colin Powell by another name...
... Blah blah! Oh, and also blah!
