24. I don't agree
Edited on Thu Jan-01-09 08:09 PM by Two Americas
It is not standing up to the right wingers that causes them to win, it is the failure by too many among us to stand up.

The conservatives in the party have been pushing this line for decades - that it was the radicals that gave us Nixon. The lesson we are supposed to learn from that is to be passive and silent, and let the conservatives in the Democratic party handle things. I say that it is they, the conservatives in the party, who gave us Nixon.
