Reply #102: Mad, you really are taking this the wrong way.

We all hope for the best, but no one expects it to just happen because steps in the right direction are being made. I think pushing the DEMS to do the right thing IS supporting them and behaving as real DEMS do.

When I look at someone like John Conyers or Barbara Boxer who are very consistent, I can let down my guard.

I still think this group can do a good job - if they know they are being watched. I don't know most of them, but by reading all the posts there are reasons to wonder if they are the best people for the job. If even one is a ringer, things will be difficult for the rest.

But that doesn't matter. Something more than all of us is directing things to happen the way they are. God isn't really a Republican. I promise. I asked Him once and I haven't been able to meditate again - He's STILL laughing.

The momentum the party is building is bringing more people back from the dark side. Even repubs are distancing themselves from some of the things Bush is doing and some of their attempts to make us look bad really reflect back on them.
