[Q]

...handed over the government on a silver platter by not being a true opposition party.

Look...I hate to be the bearer of bad news...but the Republicans OWN our government. This is why they've become arrogant enough to proclaim that they have no intention of working with Democrats and plan to push Bush's* agenda without their input.

So then...just how would staging a walkout or protest 'hand over' something they already posess? How could it possibly hurt a party that lost two elections to the dumbest, most arrogant candidate in history?

The world..and more importantly Democrats...would gain a new respect for a leadership that many believe have lost faith in democracy.
