8. I'm a DEMOCRAT, and I hope you are, too.

What is this obsession some Dems have with carping about those in the party who don't agree with them on many issues? Do you think Montana is going to elect a vegan-green party-socialist? Elections are choices of the people who live there. It's ridiculous for city dwelling members of the party's left to think that Dems in the rural states can be DEMS and vote the way that will make urban Dems happy.

This party will not win the presidency or get the House or Senate back without middle of the road and conservative Dems. Alienating them is the best way to lose.

In 2006, I will support any DEM candidate who will support the ticket and the party. I could care less about Cindy Sheehan. If she's not supporting the party, to hell with her.
