I have felt that way and still do.
Four years ago you could not have found a more loyal democrat than me. In fact I have always, including this year, voted straight D ticket. I am not atracted to any of the third parties, I don't like their rhetoric and I don't agree with their choice of helping Bush win to teach the democrats a lesson. We could have had a President Gore.
But I am disgusted with the desire of the entrenched party elite to hold onto thier own personal bits of power than help the party become the majority party again.

They are not thinking of us, or what is good for the country. They are thinking of themselves and personal ambition. Some don't even have any particular democratic ideological leanings. They are democrats because that is what wins where they started out.
