The challenge for the new DNC Chairmen.

[kentuck]

First of all, I think we need to double down. The two candidates now running should be named co-Chairman. Democrats need to think out of the box, in my opinion.

Also, we need to focus more on the local and state levels, rather than solely on the Presidency. The power is in the Congress, not the Presidency, when the people need legislation.

The new DNC should contact every local Democratic HQs to discuss finding challengers for every open office, especially for the US Congress. We should be more partisan in our attacks on the "do-nothing" Republicans.

Democrats should look to compete in all 50 states and should have coordination between all State Party Chairs. We need to start at the very bottom and work our way up. We have to re-build the Party.

1. Like the co-Chairman idea

2. The GOP has proven that power can be excercised by only controlling one House

of Congress. The GOP basically stopped President Obama for 7 years simply by controlling the House.

3. I am perfectly fine with having co-chairs. However ...

If Ellison is not elected as the sole chair, the far left fringe of the party may have another "Bernie or Bust" hissy fit.

6. Baloney.

4. I LOVE the idea of co-chair people. We need to model cooperation and support instead of this

Infighting crap. I like Ellison but his loudest supporters have me seriously concerned they would lead him down the wrong path. And it's a full time job. Or a job and a half!

5. Oh yes. The Chairmen.

Must be Chairmen or Chairman. Back to normal.
