Er let me rephrase that, because they have many. They're still trying to settle on one.
Which they will. In the meantime, it's amazing how successful they've been to just let the Republicans unravel on their own.
One thing the Dems are horrible at is a unifying message. One thing they are great at is actually governing.
One thing the Republicans are great at is that unifying message (Guns, God, Gays). One thing they are horrible at is actually governing.
Take your pick.
The Dems are catching on, and will get their legs soon enough. Not like they really need 'em at this point.
Nash, I wholeheartedly agree with you. If the Dems weren't the rements of hippies and they werent socialist and they weren't trying to ban guns and they didn't try to raise taxes I'd vote for them if they had a serisous canidate.
GWB has turned me off to the republican party and I will agree with you he has done more harm to the to strive of conservatism than Bill Clinton.
I guess this is a dynamic of modern politics.
As far as catching on I'd agree that some of them are (see: Hillary) but the party overall has a base of liberalism. IMHO Liberal governments don't work to improve life they just maintain the status quo. I can't say the same (better or worse) about predominatly conservative local governments.
Thus its a confusing time in politics for me. I won't vote for another Bush Cronie but I will NEVER vote for a clinton pretending to be a moderate. I just wish the libertarian party had a bigger standing today.
