1. this guy needs to rethink everything
++it was a shortage of message. An electorate poised to fire Bush and his Republican allies was never convinced it understood exactly what Democrats would do with the power they sought, and that was the killer. ++


There is nothing wrong with the dem party, it just needs minor tweaking. We just had one of the most liberal candidates we could possibly have, and we almost won!

All these leaders keep freaking out about our message. Sure some minor things can be tweaked, but the problem isn't really the message. The problem is we dont have the entire radio dial to spew our talking points the minute they come out of our mouths or from our emails.

Our message IS NOT REINFORCED by any kind of media AT ALL. We are shut out of most radio stations even in the largest cities. The DLC and others need to figure out a way to purchase a powerful rural radiostation in key swing states.

Until this happens our presidential elections will always be fought on in the states we have to have to win. We will always be playing defense with the electoral vote instead of having the luxury of going on offens ein red territory.

Until we can provide a VOICE to real working americans everyday , we will always have trouble with the message regardless of content.
