We need to be connected as much as the RW is

[ck4829]

We need to wake up and face the truth.

There is 1 reason and one reason alone why we did not win the 2002 and 2004 Elections.

We aren't connected.

I have studied the Far Right, the RW , the 'christian' Right, the GOP, etc. over and over, and one thing always comes to mind. They are so tight, it is mind-boggling.

We have to connect together just like they have and at the same time we have to exploit schisms in the RW.

How we're going to connect:

It's rather easy. We can use Forums such as DU. We bring the Movers and Shakers of the Left onto these Forums, and we discuss how we can move and act together.

We have to turn the Left into a Coalition.

We may all disagree on many things, but I also think that one thing that can unite us all is our disapproval of the RW and our wish that we do not want to live in the world that is envisioned by them.

1. You mean we have to stop eating our own?

and calling anyone who disagrees with our favorite issue a republican or worse?

2. I think so

I'm not talking about Lieberman, he is a RW'er.

I think that people like Biden though are with us.

3. one reason alone why we did not win the 2002 and 2004 Elections

Fraud, voter suppression, diebold.

Rah-Rah only will get us more votes if we fix the "real" issues.

4. Democrats

will never agree like Conservatives. Never have never will.
However, Democrats are pratical and Conservatives totally paint us as lacking principle when in fact all democrats want is a good solution.
Just my opinion though

5. We need control of the media. Without it we will continue to struggle

With the "fourth estate" dead, we need to resurrect it and start showing the American public what is really going on. Some of them have woken up but not enough. We need that megaphone.

I agree that we also need to move and act together better, and we need the help of the "movers and shakers".

Our Democratic leaders also need to step up and call people to come march on Washington or wherever, or think of something to instruct people to do to show their displeasure with the current administration, or the media. We need an opposition leader that speaks to Americans, to organize them, and to let Americans know how they can help.


As far as the number 1 reason we lost, I think it was because they stole the elections.
