No, anti-Socialists are their own worst enemies. With "friends" adopting Dem talking points like "no taxes for the rich" or "they say 'you're not one of us'" and citing individual idiots as if that was a party platform, why would the Dems need to do anything? Republicans haven't run as small as tent as you're claiming and got people claiming to be the base who refused to go because "John McCain/Mitt Romney isn't conservative enough". Republicans did more to put Hispanics in office than Dems, appointed more African-Americans to high office than Obama and still get morons claiming they're exclusionary.

People who repeat that garbage are as much a part of the problem as Obama, Pelosi or Reid -- hell, they're worse because they should know how bad the Dem agenda is but they still can't keep from taking pot shots because the Republican Party doesn't espouse all of their talking points. Some of you bitching about the direction the state or country has gone should look in the mirror, you'll find the reason for the decline there.
