You know, the republicans pander to the "radical right" because they are fearful of the loss of a |

voting bloc. I've decided I want to be "pandered" to as a member of the "radical left". Of course, pandering to ME doesn't threaten to take away anyone's right to vote, right to marry, right to choose, etc..., but merely seeks to obtain social justice for all of those people that are residing under the fucking bus. NEVER again will I vote the party line--because from where I am sitting--not much difference in the two. It's time for the squishy middle to EARN my fucking vote. Pander away--because without it, you can't count on ME the next election cycle.

2. people who believe that already feel the Democratic Party does that |

that's the problem for the ones Gibbs was talking about. they want people to think there is no difference between Obama and Bush. but many people think there is. it doesn't mean they agree with everything.
but they think it's enough to make a big enough difference in their lives.
Supreme Court being a big example.

9. I don't ask for pandering, just a little respect. |

But that seems like too much for some, including Gibbs.
