3. I'd be happy if the Dems would just quit apologizing.....
every time the Republican scolds whip out their "outrage" dog and pony show. That, and get over the Dems belief that they will look weak on defense if they don't follow the Republicans lead (leading us right off a cliff), and try looking strong by standing up to the GOP bullies.

5. I think they've done a rather dismal job so far no matter how you
view the choices in this poll.

6. Congressional Dems should do what they CAN do, instead of...
...folding on almost every issue ~ basically acting as Republican enablers.

7. Nice poll, Hitler.
:P

Sometimes we expect too much of them, and sometimes they don't seem to expect enough of themselves.

8. In the sense that DLC/Blue Dogs run the party, the Liberals
can be unrealistic in their hopes.

11. Kinda hard to tell that kind of "Dem" from the Republicans...

I wonder why they don't just change party affiliation, it would be more honest.
