Maybe that would get the hint their base is unhappy. Or maybe we're just the fringe element.

2. White Feathers would be more to the point
You have to fight first before you can wave a white flag.

4. I like this idea, but I don't know how many out there are familiar with
the significance of a white feather (despite a film and a remake).

6. Easier to mail as well.
Hell we could send them a copy of the film as well. Give them something to do - they sure as hell aren't doing their damn job.

5. Hell, send them a Primary opponent!
And then replace their sorry ass with someone who will do the job right. The will of the people needs to be enforced, lets start doing it!

7. What makes you think they give a shit
about the base???? They don't. They're still in the "shut up and vote Dem" mode. They still think we'll go along, no matter what they do and some actually will. However, the progressives, the grass roots, the people who work their precincts, get out the vote, poll watch, make phone calls, donate money, organize, will walk away in droves and the Democratic Party will go the way of the Whigs -- as they should.
