sucks. If I see Pelosi grinning wide for the cameras or hear Al franken talk about 2008 I'm going to be sick. I believe our democratic leadership has FAILED us & continues to fail us. There is no vigor, no guts, just desperate fools trying to hang on to their precious seat or hope-to-be-nomination.
I am not advocating anything crazy, just a strong unified voice of dissent. THis board is beautiful because the hardcore believers speak with one voice (different opinions granted), but we have nothing representative on TV, in the house, senate or dnc. that even closely resembles the passion & brutal honesty with which DU/online debates are conducted & broken down.
As much as I became a believer this year, I am starting to long for some radical thinking... not changing our values to appease southerners, but some clear (non-smirking, non-passive) determined leadership who knows that it is not just about values or strategy, but ACKNOWLEDGING corruption in our political system. The proof is there, but the stench of DENIAL has permeated the air.
