Reply #1: For starters, they could listen to us... [View All]

Instead of dithering around, they might try listening to those of us who are begging for a candidate who won't crumple and fold at the first whisper of opposition from Chimp Enablers. We try to appeal to the mushy middle, and turn our backs on millions of voters who are pleading for strong leadership.

We shouldn't care, at this point, about alienating any voters. If the values we hold as Democratic are to be honored, we need to stop being so meek. We need to tell THEM what we expect in a candidate, and stop giving in on our positions, lest we piss the conservatives off.

These people stay pissed off, they stay angry, they stay intolerant, and since this is the case, we need to start pushing back, and hard, to be heard. How can we expect a voter to choose the Democratic candidate if he/she is too timid to fight?
