4. Sorry, but the coffee party is a stupid idea. We already have an alternative to

the teabagger part. It is called the Democratic Party.

[MidwestTransplant]

5. I view the alternative to the teabagger party as rational Americans

[stray cat]

8. agreed - and that isn't completely democratic or republican

also rational people that give a damn about working americans.

11. Isn't that what the tea baggers claim about their party? n/t

[Tailormyst]

6. Really? Because frankly the Dems have done little to advance liberal causes.

[stray cat]

7. No - I may vote democratic but its not the alternative to corporate rule

[Individualist]

14. DLC is no alternative to teabaggers.

15. I agree with you! We need to make the Democratic Party what we want it to be. n/t

16. The Democratic Party must not be seen as effective in countering

Tea Party. Those Coffee Party people saw a vacuum and
are trying to fill it?????

17. The whole thing is just taking off everywhere

You can see it everywhere.

12. I cannot see how this will not do some good - After all look how the MSM follows the Tea Party!

Ed Shultz talked about how much media reporting they get today. So as far as the "Coffee Party" goes it is good to see anyone at least doing something in getting people together for good reasons! I have to know a little more about what their values are before I get on board but I did hear Thom Hartman talking to one of the members in Atlanta GA the other day and it sounds interesting enough to take a second look.

13. I'm ready anymore for the Beer Party. n/t
