Maxine, become an independent please!
I think this is the viable option for black house members. At least this way the Dem's will have to work for their votes instead of taking their votes for granted!
Anything middle of the road or centrist they should vote against it. The Dem's have not learned their lesson and sometimes one has to be cruel to be kind!

1. And meanwhile punish EVERYONE.
Aah, the old "Let the village burn" mentality.

I don't believe we should further fracture the left just to teach people lessons...if anything we should try to beat unsatisfactory Democrats during the primaries.

3. w/o the black vote
the democratic party will be nothing. Unfortunately the powers that be continue to ignore that fact, because they are so focus on trying to attract moderates repub to the party.

I have a question for you. Where is our Blackwell, Condi and Powell? There are no blacks in power positions in a party that receives 90% of the black vote. When is that going to change? This is the 21st century people!!!!

I'm just sick and tired of being sick and tired!

THESE reforms for your town, county, and state.
