Maybe I'm missing the point but I'm startled he's classed as a Democrat. He's classed as a conservative Democrat. What do you expect? Socialized medicine? <g> But is it a coincidence, or is every single special interest a far-left-wing precept? Or is this actually a rather selective list? Of course it's a selective list. He's making suggestions to the Democrats, after all. No point suggesting they back off on the death penalty or gun rights. does 'radical environmentalism' mean that this is yet another blinkered cretin who will deny that man-made global warming is becoming a catastrophic reality, right up to the point when Florida becomes a sea? Yes. I thought the Midwest was already over-represented in terms of its voting power I think he just wants candidates to come across as more "down home," not like Kerry. He's not talking about giving the Midwest extra votes. Ah, yes, the non-progressive tax. I think this assumes closing loopholes, which mitigates the impact of the progressivity change.
