22. I was explaining DLC'ers to some recently. They were all democrats
and had no idea what the DLC was. They thought democrats were democrats, like an FDR democrat, for example. Once they learned what the DLC was they could start to see what was going on with the financial stuff. The problem is when you start to say something some lash out at you as an Obama basher which is certainly not the case.

I strongly think the gov. is way too far in bed with corporations, contributions and lobbyists. You basically end up with a bribed government, how could one expect it to be different.

We need to get to public financing and the elimination of the electoral college, but I have no idea how is that going to happen. Maybe as more and more wake up.
