18. them are the corporate owned Dems who stand for nothing but servicing
their masters and mouthing empty platitudes so the rest of us get bored and stop paying attention.

We can't beat the GOP with Hallmark card bland platitudes and simply not being as bad as republicans.

The GOP understands that campaigning is about telling a story, and a story has conflict.

Everything you say in a campaign should have two parts:



  1. Here's how the GOP fucked something up through incompetence or cronyism.

  2. Here's how I will fix it.



Democrats seem to be will to do a very vague version of the second, when they need to be much more specific and include bringing down the hammer on the intentional damage the GOP has done to our country.

To the degree that they don't attack GOP policies and often even vote with the worst like the bankruptcy bill, it's hard not to conclude that they have similar priorities.
