There is an attitude on the left that it is the voters who are wrong - in other words, the electorate is undeserving.
At least Alan Johnson understands that it is the Labour Party which is in the wrong place, rather than the voters.
To expand a little - many on the left so so self righteous and up their own posteriors, that they cannot understand how masses of people can hold a different point of view from their own little world view. That POV is massively reinforced, because they tend to congregate only with like minded people, so don't give alternative viewpoints an airing. This very stupid woman is a classic example - she is also a University Professor, so you can be both utterly naive and stupid and also be a Doctor of something it appears:

"One of the first things I did after seeing the depressing election news this morning was check to see which of my Facebook friends ‘like’ the pages of the Conservatives or David Cameron, and unfriend them. (Thankfully, none of my friends ‘like’ the UKIP page.) Life is too short, I thought, to hang out with people who hold abhorrent political views, even if it’s just online."
- well this extremely silly woman is never going to learn is she?
