friends in the club ~ if Dean is successful, a lot of the DINOS could be removed and replaced with real Democrats.

All I know is, Democrats are out of power ~ in all three branches of the government. To play by the same old rules, means more of the same.

Let's try it Dean's way, we have NOTHING to lose, thanks to doing it their way ~

I'm so tired of watching Democrats not taking a stand, and then rationalizing why they handed Bush another victory.

I have a really hard time converting Republican friends and family when they can point to Democrats' votes and say 'Well, if the war was wrong, why did so many Democrats vote for it' or 'if the Patriot Act is so unnecessary, why did so many Democrats vote for it?'

Bush is in a corner now, yet Democrats (all but three of them) handed him another much needed victory this week.

I like Dean's strategy ~ it will help new candidates with money and with support. If I see, eg, Joe Biden one more time on TV yelling about this administration and how bad they are, then turning around and voting for Bush's agenda, I think I'll scream.

It's time for a political 'revolution'. The proof is in the pudding, Dems have been out of power for over a decade now ~ and if we don't do something different it will remain that way. Sometimes I think they want it to ~
