I don't understand the Democrats... They should have voted for Pita, but they didn't... And Pheu Thai the second largest party they don't want to vote too.. I can understand that Pheu Thai is not the best choice now, but with Move Forward they could have shown that they were real Democrats

The names of political parties have no meaning.  You can't really believe anything people say when it comes to positions, values, justifications, etc., in modern politics.  It's really a case of "say whatever you want to try to get what you want, then completely contradict your supposed values when you want something different".

well after what happened with the whole election ( i use this term sparingly) and all that.....seems it doesn't matter what they agree or disagree with.

Who cares what the Dems think or do! They are as useful as a fart in a colander.

The Democrats joined the Military Junta and were punished by the voters.  They went from being the 2nd most popular party to barely getting %5 of the vote. 

 

The only purpose they now serve is as a warning to PT as to what can happen in the NEXT election.
