3. I'm pretty centrist (at least I think so)
but I at least understand the value of pushing the where we want it to go instead of letting it drift into whatever territory the Republicans want to take it.

We may not agree on some things, even a lot of things, but I'm willing to find a way to work together in the party with you. I like your outlook.

2. I think you are right. However, Mom! He started it! is for kids.
He started it didn't get me very far as a kid with my parents. It sure never won any elections except for the republicans winning because all we can do is snipe at each other.

6. And that is why Al From should be banned from ever speaking for the DLC.
I think he takes the most unnecessarily vicious shots at other Dems this side of Zell Miller.

7. Some of the DLCers have definitely been divisive.
However, I don't think we can lump them all together just like any other group.

8. Agreed but how does this work?
This party (the ones who get to set the agenda) inside of the party is the problem. Who thought this up?

So, either change the name to the DLC and represent the entire party, not just some radical fringe, corporate faction, or the current DLC can disband and join the Democratic Party. Simple really.

Whoa boy! guess what? We're there aren't enough CEOs to swing the election, and they need us because we're their voter-cows. Do you think the CEOs will doorknob and man the phones?
