Seriously - is that what you're all about. Step up and tell me just how much you think all democrats who aren't as far left as you need to be removed from office even if that means a republican could take over the seat.

I mean, as far as I know we need more of us if we want to have the Majority leadership Reid & Pelosi both want timetables out of Iraq, hopefully we'll get to investigate an impeachment and we want the committee control (remember that short time we had majority and our judiciary blocked all the bad judicary nominees so we didn't have to worry about filibusters).

I mean, if none of that is important then as getting rid of all the 'bad' democrats (and btw, who's yardstick are we using to define these 'bad' democrats?) then maybe I just need to shutup about this talk of "Wouldn't it be nice if we had majorities in the house and/or senate" stuff.

I don't care who you vote for in the primaries, that's your time to fight your asses off for the best candidate. But if the democrats of your state feel the best candidate is a member of the DLC damnit, hold your nose and vote for the idiot.

I want a democratic majority. I want Pat Leahy's judiciary committee to put an end of these idiot judicial nominees coming in to stack the courts. I want Harry Reid's leadership to put legislation on the floor to create a timetable out of Iraq. I want Nancy Pelosi's House to look at all the crimes committed by the Bush Regime and possible consider an impeachment.

All these dreams will NOT happen if we have true "R" republicans (not these democrats we don't like that we call 'republicans") controlling the house and/or senate.

Fact: Even after Jeffords defected, Zell Miller could have crossed over to the republican side and give the repukes back the majority BUT HE DIDN'T.

So come on - stand up and be heard!!
