21. Their Reason for Staying Together
is the same as what ours ought to be, that there is no way there is anywhere else to go. But they are more hardcore, voting percentage almost TOTAL. They also do their sniping of themselves relatively behind the scenes as opposed to our outright bashing and slashing. For us, there is a vast number of our natural partisans who DON'T VOTE AT ALL, then there's another segment who have to be INSPIRED (or "be in love" as Big Dog puts it) in order to get out there. And then some of our natural partisans go to other outlets.

As for our guest Repub, above, who said we are united by "hatred of (Shrub)"-------uh, despite his ridiculousness of calling himself "another George W." (as in WASHINGTON), as he did at his 2000 convention, he hasn't been around for the 200 year history of the DemocratIC Party to be responsible for unifying us. I suppose "hatred of CLINTON" is what kept the Repub Party together. (Notice I didn't use the nicknames for Repub here out of deference to our guest.)
