53. A very good question
I've been asking myself the same thing. I read through the thread, and see some explanations/excuses, and while normally I would be the first to defend the dems, I just can't do it anymore. WHERE ARE THEY? There IS no excuse. *'s approval running into the ground, an anti-war movement growing bigger everyday, a media that now once in awhile does a story critical of shrub, and no one is doing anything to take advantage of it. I don't pretend to be smarter than the dems, but it's just plain common sense that now is the time to be pointing out the rethug's problems and faults, to come up with exit strategies, or even, just to remind the world that there IS another party. The silence is deafening, and I am losing faith in the entire party. It's sad, because there's really no viable alternative.

NOW is the time for them to make their voices heard, and I'm not hearing them. I just don't know what to think - someone in the party has got to take the lead, and start helping to take this administration down, or, at the very least, offer an alternative. The repukes have given us so much ammunition, and no one is using it...
