Yes Catspaw,

Except the left favors the BIG gangs and the right favors the smaller ones (state, city, family).

Small gangs is a natural thing.

Everyone knows "It takes a village". Hitlary told us so. The quote doesn't say "It takes a bloated self-serving bureaucracy to _____________"

We have plenty of lefties in the GOP by the way, and there are probably some wayward conservatives in the democrat party (but not many at the top).

It is more specific to refer to left and right than GOP and democrats. (except the dems stick together like glue on an issue regardless of their individual positions)
