    “Imagine if federal worker unions and Democratic Party officials showed up at the plant gate of a company that was about to close its doors," said one labor advocate recently. “Why aren’t the Democrats doing this?”

    Because that’s not what controlled opposition does. You’ll drive yourselves mad trying to figure out why the Democrats actions don’t seem to ever accomplish their stated goals. (You’re already mad if you can’t figure out why the same is true for Republicans.)
