I would say yes* (with an asterisk). Cut the """civility""", but also cut the personal attacks. The strategy of being both ruthless and principled is a good one in this day and age.
Democrats have to stop shying away from progressive values. Economic regulation is absolutely necessary in order to develop a thriving country. Welfare is a good thing, it is not an entitlement, and we will expand it. We support a nationalized healthcare system. We support a minimum wage that is above the poverty line.
People see through this so-called "centrism", the "b-b-but this and this", and it comes off as if the Democrats don't stand for anything, as if they're too scared to fight. No one wants an unpredictable representative, or a representative who is visibly overly cautious and afraid except for maybe Kingpoleon. Then comes the Republicans, who are very clear in what they stand for, and this is much more appealing, especially for apolitical people. This is why the Democrats are so incompetent.
