The Democrats have their own war, brewing, and it may be more problematic to them than what is happening within the GOP.

From the  Washington Examiner:


Hedge fund billionaire Tom Steyer has a very simple message for candidates who support American oil and gas jobs: “The goal here is not to win. The goal here is to destroy these people.”

First on Steyer’s list for destruction: Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass.
Lynch’s crime? The former ironworker and local union president supports the Keystone XL pipeline, a project which President Obama’s own State Department says will create 48,000 new American jobs. [...]

Steyer has a long list of people who support oil and gas jobs that he would like to punish. “I see this as a very broad-based societal change that has to take place. This is a target-rich environment,” he said. In fact, he wants to do for global warming what billionaire Michael Bloomberg has done for gun control  [which,  of course,  is next to nothing,  so far  --   blog editor].  Bloomberg has spent millions supporting pro-gun control Democrats in House primaries in Illinois and California. But not all Democrats are happy with Steyer’s spending.
