The big tent party...we have Pelosi and Reid
We are the the centrist party. The party of values. Both of our leaders have long time marriages, no hint of affairs, and show tolerance. We have a House leader who is a liberal feminist and supports gay/lesbian marriage. She is a proud feminist. We have a Senate majority leader who is anti-choice but a proud democrat. If we can make this work and get past our differences, we will perservere. We will take our country back.

I'm proud to claim both as my party leaders.

I will probably get pissed off at both and mostly Reid, but I'm proud that we are a big tent party. If we hang together, we'll win.

3. Per NARAL e-mail this morning: 20 new pro-choice faces in the house
Not too shabby.

4. They may be pro-gun, but I don't think they are anti-choice
or against trade restrictions. I think many are for some restrictions on abortion but definitely not anti-choice. We also elected many populist Dems. Don't believe the media. I think the populists/libertarian Dems won.
