Remember up until now the Democrats have been doing what the Republicans did at first: joked about it.
Now they have moved into the first stage: Denial

Up next: Anger

Then they will run through the same stages as the Republicans: Bargaining, Depression, and finally Acceptance.

And by then...just like with the Republicans, it will be too late for them.
