| 3. Are people honestly threatening to leave? |
|
I laid low during all this "kerry will win" stuff. I think Kos wrote a great piece about us needing to represent reality based politics, but that's just my two cents

| 6. Jumping out may not be the answer... |
|
...but changing the party IS. I'm sick of the party moving to the center and trying to look and act Republican. Today we saw a few brave souls. They should be the ones charting the future of the Dem party.

How can we move further to the right without sitting in their laps? I don't believe we've moved to center, it's worse than that for some.

| 11. Me too. I'm sick of the Kerry Bashing, Dean bashing Dem bashing |
|
I'm done yapping about the Dems who voted NO today. I still feel they failed us though.

| 12. It won't be FINE if many progressives switch to the Greens after this. |
|
If you can be proud of 80 Democrats not voting on a no-lose issue, then your pride in the Democratic Party isn't based on much.
There won't be a replay of the ABB or the Anybody But Republicans mentality in 2008. By not acting like a real opposition party, the Dems squandered their best chance at building a solid populist voting bloc and have made their job 10 times harder.
Fortunately, I'm willing to work 10 times harder for a good cause, but not for the current Dem so-called leadership.
