Reply #10: Then YOU embrace Leiberbush [View All]

I don't think that "new rule" works for us as it did for the republicans. They are locksteppers by nature. A lack of critical thinking skills is part of what made them become republicans. They need to worship something, to have ultimate faith in their leaders.

Democrats, liberals, by our very nature, don't simply accept something because we're told to. I would sooner stick a flaming poker in my eye than cheer on the likes of Joe Leiberman, no matter who is standing next to him on the podium. Part of our mission should be to explain why we're democrats and what we're about loud and clear, and force the DINO's like Joe to explain to the crowds why they appear so far out of step with the rest of the party.
