just are not based on common good, but on finding common enemies - "with us or against us".

I think of the Obamas visit to my city during the 08 primary cycle. Lots of Greens and such around here. Michelle walked into a room and made a bee line to a guy in a Green tee shirt, chatted and I'd say won his vote. Lots of our local Greens supported Obama last time, in part because some of us, including Mrs Obama, know that a vote is an important thing, and a Green vote is more likely for us than some Republican or 'Libertarian'.
Now, go ahead and take the podium I'm sure you think you own....and make whatever statement you think will help bring a coallition together....'watch your fellow DUers' is not my sort of message, but hey, you own the podium after all...
