103. Intersting
Frankly I don't look at my activities through the national lens. I focus much more locally. My intention is to try to make the world a better place as far as my reach goes. I judge my lcoal candidates on their own merits, I don't consider them guilty for the wrong doing of Dems in DC. I help those I like and want to see win and ignore those I don't. I should think that would be a reasonable position for anyone on the planet.

My local party does public forums and community project along with registering voters and GOTV efforts. Again these are activities I should think everyone would think are worthwhile.

It saddens me to see a poster at DU admit to expecting the party to be made perfect, as if by magic or something, before investing personal involvement. To see criticism for those of us trying to affect these expect, magical changes is kind of ironic.
