Americans Have Never Been So United ... As They Are On Iraq War Policy

<snip>

Democrats should not be scared of conservative name-calling, and they should not ignore the fact that Bush is not representing the vast majority of Americans.

The people have spoken. They don't want more troops in Iraq. They don't want the status quo. They want to redeploy, and soon. It's time the Democrats give these people a voice in Washington.

1. You are right, but will the Democrats take the ball and lead, or will they follow
like they have been doing the last 6 years out of fear.

Actions speak louder than words. It is quite good that Kucinich is running, he will keep them honest

3. that's the point
Democrats should stop "triangulating" -- trying to play the middle against the neocons and the liberals. The liberal opinion has become the mainstream opinion.

4. I wouldn't say that but I think we've convinced people
that the far right opinion, which has been prevailing for years, is not the right direction. The moderate democratic opinion will win the most favor in my opinion. What's funny is how extreme right wingers think their ideas are mainstream. People have been fooling themselves for 6 years now.
