I think there should be a distinction between "Dysfunctional" and "Weak".

The Idaho Democrats won't win any elections in the near future, but that can hardly be blamed on them. The Iowa GOP, on the other hand, have effectively destroyed their chances at winning a competitive Senate seat through their weak/mentally unhinged bench.

How are Texas Democrats not on there? Ultimately a state party's job is to win elections. In that regard, the TX Democratic Party has a worse record than any of these other groups. No statewide office win in nearly 20 years, and they barely have enough seats in the Legislature to keep the GOP from a supermajority.


Because the Texas Democrats are doing as well as they possibly can in Texas.
