11. Put 30 Dems in a room and you get 30 different agendas.
If politics were a dog sled race, the Republicans enter the race with a sled pulled by 20 well-trained and obedient dogs, while the Democrats enter the race with 20 feral house cats. Sure, the Republican team is nothing but a bunch of blindly obedient dogs, but their team is the one that will win the race unless we can get our wild cats to pull somewhat in the same direction.

Every time someone posts here about a really important issue a dozen more reply with posts about why their own issue is more important than the issue of the OP. Feral house cats. No teamwork. No common vision. We are nothing more than a loose coalition of people who, in one way or another, oppose the Republicans for various and sundry reasons. Beyond that we can't really agree on anything.
