Lack of any form of cohesive structure. There are what, nine Democratic candidates for President duking it out? Same reason they lost so many seats in the last general election--it comes across as infighting and lack of any kind of CAUSE.
Several of the current Democratic candidates are trashing each other pretty badly, so it seems like if they ever get down to ONE, why would anyone vote for him when all we've heard is bad? They've got to be more cautious if they want to regain their seats.
And since there seems to be such a lack of structure, there's a lack of direction. (I'm not a right-wing troll, by the way. I'm a populist, but we don't have a candidate. I hate being "represented" by Ivy League elitists of either party.) Right-wingers have often come across as hysterical, but the lefties are rather taking that over because there's so much to be distressed about that they can't focus.
