89. Unfortunately GD Presidential and beltway circlesdo not represent reality
Edited on Wed May-05-10 10:55 PM by Go2Peace
Seriously, even with the President taking a slight turn to populism in recent months the Dems are still not connecting. I will be out working and voting. But we have got to get our heads out of the sand. We keep doing the same things over and over and in the long term we are losing the battle of ideas.

We are becoming the managers for the Republican world view. Take us instead of them, we pretty much believe in most of the concepts they do, we will just manage it a little better, reduce the racism, and throw those of you who work hard a few more cookies!

Where does that leave us? Eventually with only two choices. Become less and less relevent, or ending up becomeing what the Republican part was in Reagan's day. We have to be something fundamentally different. Not just in approach, but in fundamental values.
