I had considered blogging it earlier, but at first they seemed to manage to control the more extreme parts of their coalition fairly well.
However, the fact that they have members running against themselves and as a result end up being led by a member of PiS shows the danger of their chosen strategy.

Seems to be endemic to many political parties that when somebody central has a strong, differing opinion, he/she gets expelled/shut down instead of causing a rethink. This rebel might actually have a significant amount of voters behind him.
