3. This party was dominate for decades
when we stood for the rural farmer, urban poor, union worker, salt of the earth types.

now we're the party of abortion and gays.

I'm a democrat, not an abortionist.

What the hell do we have to do to be the party of the common man again?

Because being the party of gays and abortionists is pushing the common man into the open arms of the GOP who is selling them out.

Now you call all call me a bigot homophobe.

We co-opted so many 60's and 70's movements for better or worse that we are getting killed on the national stage. Our base has left us, and what remains cant get us elected. Cold facts.
