SHOULD DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND CHANGE ITS NAME?

[THUNDER HANDS]

You know, now that we're not exactly underground anymore, what with us controlling all three branches of government and a majority of governorships.

[Liberalboy]

1. We need to keep the name, so that...

we never forget how bad it got!

[Danger Mouse]

2. No. I think we should STAY DU and stay true to our roots.

Let's not make the same mistake the Repukes made.

[Left Is Write]

7. Yes. I agree with you and Liberalboy.

We can't forget why DU began in the first place.

[MrMickeysMom]

21. You mean...

... changing their name to Free Republic when it should have stayed...

Limbaugh sniffing, Knuckle-dragging, 12-sandwich eating, Insignificant Shitbags?

[gmoney]

3. "Democratic Overlords" has a nice ring to it...

bwahaha!

[Seen the light]

8. LOL!

[coffeenap]

4. We are still going to be the opposition--just from the other side!

:P

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

5. We have all three?

Most Supreme Court Justices are Repuke appointees. FDR had this problem early in his administration.

[Kahuna]

6. Nope. We still have our work to do...

:patriot:

[intheflow]

9. We're still the progressive left arm of the party.

That continues to make us underground.

[Occam Bandage]

10. We're still the underground part of the Democratic party. nt

[IndianaGreen]

11. It's up to Skinner to keep DU open after Inauguration Day

certainly the Obama Administration is facing as great a challenge as Roosevelt did during the Great Depression and the rise of Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany. The rightwing still has its powerful megaphones on TV and radio, and their message must be countered. This is not the time to tear down the tents and go home.

[Frank Booth]

12. Yes. How about to something like HotSluts or PornTown.

Might get more readers that way.

[edbermac]

13. Nah, Skinner would have to change the monogram on all his towels.

He's got enough aggravation in his life. :silly:

[Cha]

14. I vote NO..we started as

DemocracticUnderground and as a reminder to always be vigilant..I think it will always have a nice ring to it.

[Up2Late]

15. No, No, Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

There is always a need for a place on the internet for democracy Extremist to meet and chat about democracy stuff.

[Norrin Radd]

16. No. "Underground" sounds like a cool, non-mainstream rock band.

And it scares off the centrists.

[codjh9]

17. Hey, we're still way more 'underground' than those moderates out there, eh? So keep the name!

[blondeatlast]

18. Never. We aren't official and I like that! nt

[ProgressiveEconomist]

19. Self-delete

[ProgressiveEconomist]

20. Maybe, if the initials stay 'DU', as in Democratic Underbelly, Democratic Undertow,

Democratic Underpinnings, Democratic Understandings, Democratic Underdogs, Democratic Uptakes, Democratik Uptrend,. Democratic Upthread, Democratic Umbrella, or Democratic Upshot

[DainBramaged]

22. Wonky World, or, we aren't satisfied until you aren't.,

:think:

[Generic Brad]

23. We don't run the party, but the party could not run without us

What about "Democratic Underlings"?

[kerry-is-my-prez]

24. It takes too long to get a new domain name out into the search engines.

not a good idea.
