1. Left-wing commentators always have an interest in pressuring the Democrats to move even further left, and to register even stronger opposition. Calling your party "spineless" works well enough there.
2. Right-wing commentators have an interest in portraying the Democrats as weak. Calling them "spineless" works well enough there.
3. Lazy commentators don't bother doing any research, and so they call them "spineless" because that's what they hear other people saying.
